Designer creates a modern concept for Task Manager

One of the features not getting as much love as others in Windows 11 is the Task Manager, which in the new operating system is mostly the same as in Windows 10.

So with Windows 11 evolving substantially and getting a new look, one would expect the Task Manager to also be redesigned in such a way that it would align with the rest of the operating system.

While Windows 11 is still in the development stage, so the Task Manager could still be facelifted by the time the OS hits the shelves, reddit user evilbulk has come up with their very own approach that reimagines this important feature that power users turn to on a regular basis.

In this concept, the Task Manager uses a modern UI that is indeed inspired by Windows 11, though as someone else on reddit says, the first screen barely makes any sense.

Windows 11 coming later this year

The purpose of Task Manager is to come to the rescue whenever something doesn’t work as planned, so having one more screen that just lets you open the required screen isn’t necessarily the best way to go from a UX perspective. The tabbed approach that Microsoft currently uses seems just about right, not to mention that the Task Manager should open to the process information screen by default.

Nevertheless, this Task Manager concept is still worth checking out, not only by users out there but also by Microsoft itself.

The company says Windows 11 is entirely based on user feedback, so the Task Manager too deserves a modern treatment. But with the new OS already making its way to the Beta channel of the Windows Insider program, it’s hard to believe the Task Manager would be given a dramatic facelift, so fingers crossed for this highly anticipated redesign to be part of an update that would land rather sooner than later.
