I do miss those features when using Windows 11 :(

I agree, what the heck was microsoft thinking?

Seriously. The could expand the left swipe for fast switching apps, but no... Let's put this feature nobody asked for instead.

I miss the left swipe gesture which opens task view so much. It was second nature to me when I was using Windows 10. There is basically no reason to use task view anymore, unless you want to swich to a different desktop while using touch gestures. Yes there is a button on the taskbar for task view, but why bother with it when I may just as well click on the apps I need which are also on the taskbar.

I miss them soooo bad. I never use the stupid widget news feed

Welcome :)

I'll say thanks here too!

I’m glad this helped you out!

Happy it helped :)

I hope so too, even if we just get the options to customise what the gesture does

Thank you and I agree, swiping left was very easy

If you need any tips let me know :)

Hi Rosie, firstly thank you comment :) Great to hear you're enjoying Windows 11 touch experience and that it's even comparable now to an iPad!

Really happy the tips helped!

You're so welcome!

And its incomplete.. FML

Thank you :)

Glad it helped!

Nice you got to 1k!

We made it!!

Glad it helped :D

Glad it helped :)

yea at the moment you do :(

You're welcome! Thanks for the comment :)

Thank you

That is actually such a solid build of a machine. You’ll handle it just fine imo. It might say your processor and lack of tpm are an issue but that’s more around security and not actual performance of the os. You might even get better performance when upgrading

I'm running Windows 11 on a surface pro 1 from 2013. No issues whatsoever. Everything works.

Thank you! Not much has changed with the latest updates TBH

You’re welcome, thanks for the comment :) if you have a laptop without touch screen you can still access these tools by using and adding the buttons to your task bar. If you right click your task bar you’ll have the option to show or hide some of these buttons. Hope this helps!

Good tip!

You're welcome!

ohh I didn't know that! It would be good if you could customize the gestures in Win 11

@@AldoJames I just realized I was wrong actually 3 finger tap bring search. I just added gestures for notification and quick setting

I know, sometimes it's questionable who makes these decisions

I'll add it to the videos to make :)

Not that I've figured out yet...it was originally going to be a deal breaker for me, I've been using the 3 finger swipe left on the screen to swap apps instead

I see, thank you! Ill probably look for something similar in order to replace it, I just went into my regedit and removed the gesture for now

@@amidnight1036 Top idea! thanks for letting us know

Thanks for the comment and you're welcome :)

It is a really bad product and MS should be ashamed it's even out.

@@HAWXLEADER 😅😅

Welcome :)

It came out in an update recently

Unfortunately not at this stage but I think that would be a great feature for them to add. I preferred Windows 10 left and right gestures tbh

I agree, it's an odd design choice 😢

It's definitely a better touch experience

I don't believe there are any ways to customize touchscreen gestures in Windows 11

@@AldoJames Thx for the reply anyways. Hope they will add some features with time. Today in July 2022 it feels pretty shallow and lacking some things.

I know, it's little things like that that are frustrating :( I don't know of any ways to do this as easily as it was with Win 10

Hi Misslovely, i made a video on fixing type cover issues not long ago! Try these steps and let me know if it worked: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qpt8nqaC3Mute2w.html

Thank you at least the automatic touch keyboard started working again thank you alot i am waiting a few more days till i get a chance to ship out the original one and get a replacment first thanks that what

@@AldoJames what i did what i said press the power button and volume up like u said but there was no white logo to put reset i guess it my type cover but thank you I really needed that fix. idk whats wrong when i did no damage nothing in the way i have to wait a long time now to give back thru the ups mail store and wait but thank you.

Thank you! :)

There isn't but it owuld be great if they did

It's the Surface Pro X :)

Those specs would work great for Windows 11 :)

Hi there, Windows is definitely getting better as a tablet optimized device but I think that's the trouble, having one operating system that's built for of both keyboard + mouse use or touch + pen. It sort of makes me think of why Apple still runs different operating systems on their Macs & their iPads, they can customize each input for the specific OS. My biggest problem with the gestures atm is swiping in from the left, it was so useful to swipe in and switch applications...now all it does is show me widgets :(

It’s the Pro 7 but when it had an early developer preview installed. Release edition is much smoother

i got that bro it worked , in bluetooth devices there is the setting to stop three and four finger touch gesture on and off

Awesome!

You might need to reinstall the drivers from the Lenovo website

Not a dumb question 😊 you'll need to go into the settings and choose to have the keyboard icon always in the Taskbar or you can have it set to appear every time you click on a field that you can type into. Hope this helps 😀

Four finger swipe down should do it :)

Nothing at the moment, best you can do is disable to gesture

thank would be good

@@AldoJames Iam playing games and right swipe shows me calendar what’s the point 😤

@@venusdarkside4350 that’s a question for Microsoft haha I can imagine that can be distracting :(

You’re welcome! Which tablet will you be using Win 11 on?

@@AldoJames I said WON'T

@@mrtoaster2954 Haha thanks for clarifying, I misread that

@@AldoJames it's ok. Thanks for good quality helpful video.

I think it's good to not have a dedicated mode but the slight adjustments made for touch make it a good experience

@@AldoJames yeah, correct

It would be cool if you could but the gestures are locked

ohhh man yea I can see how that would be an issue on a handheld!

It looks like Microosft is taking on some of this feedback and slowly changing the UI but I understand wher you're coming from

@@AldoJames Aye! They have apparently added a Bluetooth quick setting to the latest developer build! Not sure if it’s out yet but I’m pumped for it to hit the stable build man, I switch BT devices so damn much between my surface and desktop, I just have the settings pane permanently open on both devices for quick access, so I’m so ready for this update

Yea it’s annoying that they’ve added more steps in to do the same thing. I get that it looks nicer but it’s lost some of its functionality

Thank you!

Did you figure this out?

@@AldoJames yes, it's normal

Which laptop are you experiencing this on?

@@AldoJames lenovo yoga6

Happy my video helped, Windows 11 is definitely a big upgrade over 10 now

The desktop concept is for pro users not for natives

The desktop concept is for pro users . Nieves only don't like it

Yup

@@AldoJames how do you access notifications then? What's the shortcut? Notifications on windows 10 is Win+A. And now with them separated how to access?

Welcome :)

Thank you!

I see you feel very strongly about this 😅 but I understand where you're coming from. Did you switch back to mac or are you using Windows?

@@AldoJames I'm using both. My music production power needs increased when Apple's Mac Pro's were inexistent or priced and specced waaaay out of my goldilocks zone. So I built a 3950X miniITX system, as my first PC build ever. My intention was to just run win10 on it but I've specced and installed it in such a way that messing around with a MacOS install should be feasible, should I ever need it. So far it's been win10 though. I have two main gripes with the 'press and hold' for right click. 1. It just slows you down considerably while if anything a touch screen should help you navigate more swiftly. 2. (And worse still) if you use touch to manipulate objects like faders, having press&hold for right click enabled, means you constantly have this richtclick dialog visibly starting to appear, possibly (almost surely) lagging the response time of your touches too. It just won't do, so you have to turn press&hold off, leaving you with no right click functionality using touch. Unless you use the virtual on screen trackpad.... :O At least in Mac, I can touch while pressing a ctrl key to get the rightclick menu. On win 8.1Pro, in Pro Tools, I was able to use the windows key for that, but it doesn't seem to work on win10. In either case, press&hold as the ONLY way of performing a right click in windows using a touch screen is just the kind of slapped on functionality that got me to run from windows to Mac in the first place. One of the reasons I decided to start toying around with windows again is because Apple refused to support/implement touch in MacOS whereas MS have embraced it. Well, low and behold, touch on MacOS with a third party driver works better for me in many respects than native touch on windows does. Go figure. The gap between windows and Mac in terms of UI is much narrower than it once was, but it's still there. I still prefer MacOS, but windows is fine (and of course it has advantages too, life ain't in black&white). The old quality of functions over quantity approach of Apple is still noticeable over MS' quantity over quality approach. Apple's approach can be excruciatingly annoying if they refuse to implement something you happen to want, but they generally don't just slap on something like press and hold without thinking it through or at least developing it further over the years. MS have just slapped it on and just left it at that. Shoddy work.

@@TheGoodDrEvil Now I'm curious, what gesture would you prefer for right click on touch? I see you mentioned something about touching while holding control, but that assumes you have a keyboard connected and available while in touch mode which the vast majority of users will not have. When I use my Surface Pro in touch mode, the keyboard is always folded behind and inaccessible. I've considered that a two finger touch could work for right click, but then the touch targets get harder to hit with two fingers simultaneously.

@@kylewolfe_ Yeah I've thought about that too. I guess a primary touch quickly followed by a secondary touch just next to it would e an idea? You could adjust how quickly it would respond, like you can adjust double click speeds etc. You could even have preferences whether that secondary tap should be a single digit or a multi finger affair. Hell, you could even assign different actions according to how many fingers you use for the secondary tap. This gives you the precision of a one finger tap, but the option of multi touch gestures. Would that work? You could also look at how Bitwig does single finge gesures for audio editing. Just by an inital touch and then sliding to the left, right, up, down for different functionality. All of these options could be much quicker and more powerful than only having a sluggish touch and hold option. Methinks.

I've never used Fedora Linux, do you use it as your main OS?

@@AldoJames only on my laptop Oh my desktop I use win10 as it runs great. The laptop overheats too much on windows 11(even on idle) while on Fedora it's cold with the fall not even turning on.
