By Windows taskbar toolbar i mean the toolbars that appear on your taskbar and are controlled by right-clicking the taskbar and selecting an option from the toolbars menu list.

You're looking for the COM interface IDeskBand. Microsoft have sample code in the MSDN library. They also provide a complete working sample (for IE primarily but will also work on shell) called KBBar.

    • I don't know, I haven't checked what changed in previous sockets. I agree that the 1156-1155-1151 succession was suspicious, with a reduction in pin count every time. Intel could do a better job of pre-allocating pins for future use. Another hypothesis is that the internal layout of their CPUs change, like the I/O is moved from one place to another on the chip, and they need to reorganize pins rather than having circuitry go into spaghetti mode to remain compatible. I agree that if AMD is able to maintain compatibility, Intel should be able to do the same, at least by reserving pins for future use and then using those pins when a need for them arises. However, I wouldn't say that AMD's products are entirely better. Intel's I/O now slightly edges out thanks to having double the bandwidth to the chipset and dedicated Thunderbolt lanes to the CPU. It seems that they could widen their lead with the next platform. NVMe SSDs have increased the need for PCIe lanes significantly, and AM5 has been pretty underwhelming in that regard, especially because the chipset connection is so narrow and gets saturated with just 1 gen 4 SSD, leaving the other chipset connectivity (Ethernet, Wi-Fi, audio, etc) to hope for any remaining bandwidth. Otherwise motherboard manufacturers could also make more x2 M.2 slots, those would be fast enough at gen 5 speeds and possibly at gen 4 speeds too.
    • Exactly, the E-cores actually give you good performance for what they offer, it's no surprise that Intel is doubling down on more E-cores instead of more P-cores. The LP-cores are good for when you're system is just sitting there idle and waiting to be used. Every core has it's place tbh, it's just up to Intel to and MS to work to get the scheduler right.
