The thing that is on the left side of the display.  It has the icons for tasks
that I have opened and my favorites.  So to me that is a task bar.

Whatever is the default for Ubuntu 22.04.

Ubuntu 22.04

The update to 22.04 added a mount icon for some partitions.  A previous update
(not an upgrade) had added the trash icon to the "task bar".

Those two items I did not want because they took up space on the "task bar"
that required scrolling to get to someother icons.  A previous message point me
to a place I could turn off the unwanted changes.
