In Windows 10 you hover over the ‘Internet’ icon in the Notification Area and it may show ‘Connections available’. Click on the icon and a list of available Wi-Fi connections appears.
In Windows 11 (22000.51.210619-2323.CO_RELEASE), you hover over the ‘Internet’ icon and, again, it may show ‘Connections available’. (Note, however, that the ‘Internet’ icon shows in a selected group with 2 other icons.)
If you click on the ‘Internet’ icon a panel appears:
You *don’t* click on the obvious Wi-Fi icon. Instead you have to click on the adjoining arrow for the list of available Wi-Fi connections to appear:
I don’t understand the logic of taking a very simple working action from Windows 10 and making it slower to carry out in Windows 11.
Similarly, when you enter the Wi-Fi connection password then click on the ‘eye’ icon at the end of the text entry box to check for typos… the plaintext version disappears the moment you release the click.
So, if – like me – you prefer to see plaintext as you type, you have to hold the click down whilst you type.
Again, I don’t understand the logic of making such a simple concept as a plaintext toggle more difficult to actually use.
