Windows 11 no longer has a dedicated "Tablet Mode" with a toggle to turn it on or off

Windows 11 automatically switches between desktop and tablet experiences based on how you're using your device.¹

Here's how it works:

For 2-in-1 devices (like laptops with a screen that folds back or detachable keyboards):

• Tablet mode: When you physically convert your device into a tablet (e.g., by detaching the keyboard or folding the screen back), Windows 11 will automatically switch to a tablet-optimized experience.² This includes maximizing windows, simplifying the taskbar, and making touch input easier.³
• Desktop mode: When you reattach the keyboard or unfold the screen back into laptop mode, Windows 11 will switch back to the traditional desktop interface.

For tablets:

• Windows 11 will default to a tablet-optimized experience since these devices are primarily used with touch input.

Key things to remember:

• No manual toggle: You can't manually turn "Tablet Mode" on or off in Windows 11.
• Automatic switching: The switch between modes is automatic and based on your device's physical configuration.
• Focus on touch: The tablet experience in Windows 11 is designed to be more touch-friendly, with larger icons and simplified menus.

If you have a 2-in-1 device and it's not switching to tablet mode automatically when you convert it, make sure that:

• Your device has the necessary sensors: Some devices might require specific sensors to detect when they're being used in tablet mode.
• Your drivers are up to date: Outdated drivers can sometimes interfere with automatic switching.

If you're still having trouble, you can contact your device manufacturer for support.
