Talking about the status bar in File Explorer?  You can't afaik...you can hide it.

Talking about the taskbar?  You can't.

You will need to use a third party application.

 

Windhawk has an extension for it.

Reg Key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced DWORD TaskbarSi  values 0 1 or 2 (small, normal, large)

This may not work depending on what build you are using, looks like it stopped after the taskbar grouping was added

Even prior, the icons wouldn’t align correctly for the smaller size. The last time I recall it working properly was pre-GA for the initial release.
