   After posting so much nonsense you forgot what you said in your OP:   
   "The Windows 11 user interface is, IMHO, vastly inferior to that of   
   Win10." If that's not a complaint I don't know what would be.   
      
   As for "Zaidy goes way back and understands we're working together here   
   to solve a problem", that's just more nonsense. Zaidy simply suggested   
   one of the thousands of utilities that have been created over the years   
   to help users customise every version of Windows. The "problem" you want   
   to solve only exists in your mind.
