[SOLVED] How to hide open app names (labels) on the taskbar?

[Orbit Storm]

I'm referring to the labels shown here:

After doing some Googling, it appears that this should be an option in Settings > Personalization > Taskbar > Taskbar Behaviors but it's not there.

I just upgraded to Windows 11 a few hours ago and have already applied available updates. I've also rebooted several times since then.

Edition: Windows 11 Home
Version: 22H2
Installed on: ‎6/‎3/‎2023
OS build: 22621.1778
Experience: Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22642.1000.0

My fault, I just realized that a program I downloaded (ExplorerPatcher) to revert the Windows 11 start menu back to the Windows 10 format had labels enabled by default. I hadn't noticed it prior to installing the program.

I was just about to comment...that is not normal Win 11 behavior.

Google turned up results showing that labels were coming to Windows 11 and I was so confused wondering how I ended up with a feature long before anyone else. 😂

So sorry for the goofy post. I'm good with the thread being removed if it's considered clutter.
