In an upcoming update, Microsoft is finally going to give the Task Manager some love. Windows 11
, one of the few parts of the OS that hasn’t changed much in quite a while.
However, don’t expect a fundamental revolution.
Windows 11: some changes on the form for the task manager
Currently in testing at Microsoft, a new version of the task manager should arrive for Windows 11 users during the Sun Valley 2 (22H2) update at the end of the year. This central element of Windows having hardly changed for years, it is quite normal that it finally adopts the new interface of Windows 11.
If the code of the application always looks the same (it would even be visibly possible to return to the old appearance), its organization changes a little.
In addition to being compatible with the dark theme, note that the display hitherto in tabs at the top of the window will instead adopt a column display on the left. There we will find the entries Processes (which displays at the top the load of the CPU, GPU, RAM, etc.), Performance, Application History, Startup, Users, Details and Services.
More options also appear on the menu, such as the window displayed by default, the real-time update speed or even elements related to the behavior of the window.

- Graphical redesign of the successful interface
- Improved Snap
- Effective anchor groups
To be completely honest, Windows 11 seems to us to be a good evolution of Windows 10. Beyond the very marketing aspect linked to the surprise effect (Windows 10 was presented as the last of the last, remember) and to the essentially graphical redesign of the interface, the update brings a bit of clarity and modernity that are welcome after six years spent with an OS designed to reconcile Microsoft and its audience. We also like the discreet details that make it more functional, such as the improved snap and anchor groups, or even the refined management of virtual desktops. Finally, we are really convinced by the redesign of the Microsoft Store. By agreeing to return to the exclusivity reserved for UWPs, Microsoft is effectively hitting where it is not expected and finally compels itself to catch up on Apple and Google.
