I was wondering, has anybody updated to the Windows 11 update with using a screen reader? Are there any new commands or features that I need to be learn about? My company is about to have us all update to it

The windows 11 start menu is quite a bit different than Windows 10. I find it a challenge to navigate it with the arrow keys, which is my preference. There is a couple of things in that navigation that I find baffling.

It is possible to remove the Windows 11 Taskbar and replace it with the Windows 10 Taskbar. I have done that on my Windows 11 machine because I hate the new Taskbar so much. Also, it allows me to add the Quick Launch Toolbar, which Microsoft removed about ten years ago and cannot be installed in the Windows 11 Taskbar. I can't recall if changing the Taskbar also changes the Start menu. Changing the Taskbar and adding the Quick Launch Toolbar are not officially supported by Microsoft, but I have been using both for about a year and I have had no problems with them.
