I don't see a problem with installing both explorer patcher and taskbar tweaker. It shouldn't effect stability of your system. |

Yes, labels make little sense when the bar is vertical |

I think more often than not, the labels are not useful since you can only see a small portion. The issue from my perspective is that it is not obvious you have to use "always combine" before the labels automagically disappear. Can the properties menu at least be improved to make that more apparent? I had to google it, which lead me here before I could figure out how to get rid of the labels. FYI, I AM using the vertical orientation, although, even for horizontal I don't think I like the labels. |

It is 2024 and using the latest version on Windows 11 I can't seem to find an option either in Properties nor in the Windows taskbar settings where I can set the option to "Always combine". The closest such configuration is in Windows Personalization>Taskbar >Taskbar behaviors>Combine taskbar buttons and hide labels... which I have set to "Always" but has no effect. Taskbars still show the labels when ExplorerPatcher is operating. |

This worked on my Win11 23H2: Windhawk - Disable Grouping First put the native Win11 Taskbar "Combine taskbar buttons and hide labels" setting to "Always" Just have to say what a silly little gap msft has left us with... from web searching one can readily see many want this option. |

Right now, in order to hide text labels, you have to enable "always combine" taskbar icons. I would like to hide text labels, without combining icons.
Taskbar Tweaker was able to do this. I would like to be able to do this with Explorer Patcher, without having to install TT.
