You could've changed the setting that puts the button back on the lower left corner and saved your relative the trouble.
The new default is truly terrible, though, and this was the first setting I had to change when I was forced to use a windows laptop by the company I work in.

Nice, I didn't know that was possible; I expected it to be unchangeable, since I heard that the whole taskbar is no longer customizable in newer Windows releases.
Last time I used Windows 11, maybe late last year, there was no way of doing that… though they had finally allowed you to turn off the source of ads (“widgets”) which they put in the corner instead.
