One more legacy part of Windows 11 is getting a new look. Engineering student Gustave Monce spotted a new look for the Task Manager in Windows 11 hidden in the recent builds. And it matches with Microsoft's new Fluent Design language. It's possible to enable it in the latest preview builds, but it hasn't been officially launched, and Monce noted that everything is "broken." It is in its early phases, but it already has a dark mode and an interface matching the Windows 11 design changes.
You can see rounded corners, pastel shades, and a more straightforward interface. The tabs in the existing Task Manager are replaced with a sidebar that lets you switch between the different sections. As The Verge noted, the Task Manager has been around since it debuted in Windows NT 4.0, but it hasn't been updated in almost a decade. Its last redesign was when Windows 8 was launched.
