By default, the task view is always available on the taskbar and in case it was not available, right-click on the taskbar and choose taskbar settings.

With this significant improvement that Microsoft has brought to Windows 11 and on the virtual desktop, it is just located on the toss bar. Even the background will be the same but you can change the background for each virtual desktop separately. But remember that only the icons will be the same among all the virtual desktops. Even if you have a single screen you can create virtual desktops where you can work on a separate project at a time and switch between them. However, with the feature called task view in Windows 11, you can create separate Wallpapers for your separate screens. If you had a screen with multiple displays, you will remember that the same wallpaper with the same settings would have been applied to all of them. Have you ever decided to complete your projects on different desktops and work on them separately one at a time? If yes, then the virtual desktops are exactly the feature that you are looking for. In Windows 11 the virtual desktop has gotten a lot better, for example, you can set a different wallpaper for each virtual desktop which makes it easier to distinguish one desktop from another. Which is a lot simpler for doing tasks separately for focusing only on one project. Virtual desktop is a feature that was introduced with Windows 10 and with Windows 11 it has gotten significant improvement.
