    You mean the pre-release version, 4.4.170?

    I have it and can upload it if you want.

    4 / 67 are VT results, but they are all false positives.

    Does anyone know how I can get a vertical taskbar in Windows 11 and make it thin?
    I do this in Windows 10 with 7+ Taskbar Tweaker.

    @B-boy/StyLe I have 4.4.160. Have not tried it yet. Have you loaded that per-release? If so how did it look/work?

    Yes, I am using it since release. No problems so far. I am also using the following skin for it:

    Here are a few screenshots:

    Edit: However, it's a bit strange that the download link doesn't exist anymore.

    Thanks for getting back B-boy. I am a bit confused. You wrote you have been using it since release, but in the above post you write you don't use Win 11.

    Yes, but this version should be compatible with Win 11. Check this topic:

    https://www.elevenforum.com/t/open-shell-4-4-170.1047/

    The only weird thing is that the link is now dead. The latest version available is 4.4.169:

    https://github.com/Open-Shell/Open-Shell-Menu/releases/tag/4.4.169-beta

    You can test 4.4.169, and if it works, then you can stay with it if you don't want to risk with a suspicious (mysterious) version like 4.4.170. :)
