What does my soundblaster actually do? Also looking for an improvement on setup.
If you need to quickly switch from X3 to other device (MB + speaker) there is the Volume2 app, since Win11 sound/volume settings are a mess.

Fixing Creative's Volume Control Issue when using DDL or DTS
If you've ever used digital encoders with Creative products, you may have noticed that it's only possible to adjust the overall volume by changing the volume of the "What U Hear" recording device. While some solutions like Volume2 have been suggested, I struggled to find the right settings in there.

Things I've learned enabling bootcamp in my MacBookAir 2017
Volume keys doesn't show a visual response: This is because an update from apple software update for windows. You can disable updates, in my case I've installed Volume2, works great and it has a skin to mimic apple and windows 11 appearance.

X4 No Volume Control
You will want to seek out and install a third-party tool like Volume2 to take over system-wide volume slider control and redirect the shortcuts/media keys to adjust the "What U Hear" recording device level instead of your default output device (which should remain unchanged/normal).

any way to get rid of the playing box and just have the volume bar ?
Yep I wanted the same thing and was able to do it. I used Volume2 and chose the skin that looks like the default windows volume osd. I also have HideVolumeOSD running like someone else mentioned but I don't think that's actually necessary with Volume2.

Is there a programm that adds the sound controll to the task bar? (like in the picture)
Try Volume2, maybe you'll find what you need there. For example, I use the volume control by scrolling the mouse wheel over the tray, with a beautiful indicator, and the percentage of sound is displayed in the tray.

Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone
I've been very happy happy with https://github.com/Open-Shell/Open-Shell-Menu as a Start Menu replacement. If ads have rolled out to my Windows install, I wouldn't even notice.

Windows XP 2024 Edition is everything I want from a new OS
Whenever I set up a new computer for older family members, despite it being windows 11, I always install open shell[1] and retro bar[2]. Between the two, I've made the operating system look very close to Windows XP visually, and they always appreciate it.

Window Manager / DWM replacement?
There's Open-Shell but it's not exactly a full WM replacement.

There is also Open Shell, a free and open source tool which performs a similar function.

Ask HN: How do you “clean” Windows from all bloatware?
I use Open Shell (fork of Classic Shell) as a replacement to original Start Menu. This gives me full control over what appears in start menu - no results from internet, animated tiles, etc (I am on Win 10 though, from what I read the Win 11 is supported, but not yet officially [1]). It could be a solution to the ads appearing in start menu.

I missed the old windows so i tried to recreate it
Looks like you're going for an XP theme. May I suggest using open-shell to skin the taskbar, start menu, and start button if you wanna take that extra step? You can also find the taskbar skin and start button here. Also, I would remove the search bar, task view button, and news & interest area of the taskbar just to bring things together. This is all just a suggestion, you don't have to if you don't want to.
