As part of the Windows Insider update, this taskbar experience improvement only applies to tablets (such as in 2-in-1 form), not traditional laptops or desktop PCs.

The taskbar proper is set to automatically hide when the user is idle to provide more screen real estate. In the stowed state, it displays some key information — such as time and battery percentage.

When stretched out, it displays several apps, widgets and Start buttons, and makes them more suitable for interaction on a touch screen.

The tablet-friendly taskbar also automatically returns to its optimized position when disconnected, or when the keyboard dock of the 2-in-1 device is folded back.

With this update, Microsoft has also introduced other feature improvements for non-2-in-1 devices, such as system tray, widgets, task manager, and some bug fixes for windowing.

In addition, when hovering over the menu options, you’ll notice new animations and illustrations on the sidebar of the Settings app.
