  • Pros

    • ExplorerPatcher is a free and open-source utility tool that helps restore Windows 10 functionalities on a Windows 11 operating system, which includes classic features mainly from menus and taskbar.
    • It offers a wide range of customization options for your PC, making it flexible and tailored to your preference.
    • This application does not simply discard Windows 11 features but rather enhances them by adding the beloved features from Windows 10, providing you with the best of both versions.
    • After installing ExplorerPatcher, you can modify its settings easily via a right-click on the taskbar then selecting 'Properties'.
    • Besides retrieving previous OS functions, you can also choose actions to perform when left or right-clicking network icons.
  • Cons

    • The application works more as a DLL file rather than running as an independent software which might confuse some users.
    • It requires installation before using its services - this means placing it in the main folder of your Windows 11 system which may be somewhat inconvenient for non-tech savvy users.
    • An internet connection is necessary during the installment process; without one, it cannot be installed.
    • Once installed, a restart will be prompted which could interrupt ongoing work or processes in your computer system.
    • 5a The package does not support pinning of shortcuts - this could limit quick access to frequently used programs or files from the desktop area or taskbar.
