Before I start, let discuss the reasons why you want to change your Taskbar

- The old windows taskbar remembers the last active tab, but the new one is not able to remember the last active tab.
- The new windows taskbar represents everything in the group, such as applications, background processes. Which is quite uneasy for few users to use those features in Windows.
- The options in the Networking tab “Show cumulative data” and “Reset adapter history” are removed from Taskbar. Where some users took advantages of this.
- Selection of multiple applications on the Processes tab is not possible.
In the old Task Manager, you were able to use Ctrl and Shift keys just like Windows Explorer to select multiple applications and do group window management actions or group End Task them.
- Windows management functions such as Minimize, Maximize, Cascade, Tile Horizontally, etc. on the process tab and Windows options are also removed.
- In Windows 10 Task Manager, you can not be able to set the column you want as the first column for the Processes, App History, Startup, and Users tab.
