ribbon

Hello, Is there any way to disable the giant and unnecessary "ribbon" (I think it's called that at least) in windows 11? In win 10 there is a little arrow to the top right which you can minimize it with, and there are also tools that let you disable it completely, but I can't find anything at...

I sent a photo to Drive from my phone to the pc and downloaded it, but when I open it it always has the programs ribbons etc around it. How can I just get a clear photo? I am not having any luck cropping out the ribbons etc.

Place your mouse cursor anywhere in the Ribbon and then use the Scroll Wheel. It will scroll from File to Home to Share to View. This way, you won't have to click on the Tab you want. Came across this by accident. Also works in the Windows Live Mail Ribbon, eh, probably works on any & all...

What is served by grumbling? Many, may find things fun, easy, convenient, find a few things out over time & find things appealing. But, what is served by grumbling? I've found lots of neat, likable Features, have things arranged is using is comfy, I've discovered some cool paths to things...

I can't seem to get in the Windows 8 section of the Forum but, what the heck, may as well put this somewhere... Must say that the Ribbon & File functionality & offerings in the Windows 8 Explorer Windows is an absolute joy. Things are so clear, in-your-face, easy to understand &...

This will let you disable Metro ONLY or not. Disabling other things, as well or not, is an option. Nice to (still) keep or have Ribbon & Task Mgr & more. Link Removed Cheers, Drew
