My favorite is explorer patcher

You have to scroll down aways until you find the exe files under the Assets settings. You should enable the notifications for updates because Microsoft feels it is their duty to prevent you from using this type of tool. You will also get a notice that the file is dangerous, because it is not commonly downloaded.

Some people have reported problems, but I have never had any. I started using it mostly to decrease the annoyingly large taskbar in Windows 11.

Here is a YouTube video that explains how to install and use it. https://youtu.be/k8fpyeQVDYQ

Consider installing OpenShell (nee Classic Shell) on your Windows 11 system. It lets you customize lots and lots of things back to Win7 or Win10 style.
