Does StartALlBack bring back Win10 taskbar toolbars?
Technically, none of these third party shell overlays "bring back" anything.
It requires some considerable tweaking within each of these options to get anything even remotely similar to any previous appearance and behavior.
I own licensed copies of both StartAllBack as well as Start11, and...
I wasn't very happy with the results that they produced although I tried them both very early in their development and I expect new versions of each have fixed some of the early issues.
There is a suggestion above from another member regarding Explorer Patcher which I have found to be the simplest to use and tweak.
AND
While I have never found any use for the Quick Launch toolbar (ever) I thought I would see what I could do with it and it seems to be easy enough to put in place and populate.
My taskbar overall is more manageable as I can resize it, relocate it to the top or either side of the monitor.
I've got my start menu oriented to the left when it opens and defaulted to "All Apps".
Got the Quick Launch Toolbar (I kept title and text on, which you can adjust as you wish).
Got the Ribbon back on File Explorer
Simply run the file, don't freak out because it puts a single file into place and then downloads a few extra from Microsoft so your screen goes BLACK for a few seconds and Explorer.exe restarts.
Afterwards, simply right click the Taskbar and choose "Properties" and you'll see an interface that you can peruse and decide what you want to tweak.
Best of all it's free Open Source and apparently quite easy to Uninstall, although I haven't tried it yet, still playing around.
Tested on build 22000.348. New features Built-in support for build 22000.348. Implemented option to toggle taskbar auto-hide when double clicking the main taskbar (#389) Running ep_setup.exe again...
