Icon size is set by ShowSmallTaskbarIcons / ShowLargeTaskbarIcons tweaks.

Combining is set by SetTaskbarCombineWhenFull / SetTaskbarCombineNever / SetTaskbarCombineAlways.

To rollback the taskbar icon settings and make them look like on a freshly installed system, run ShowLargeTaskbarIcons and SetTaskbarCombineAlways.

i tried running those with powershell.exe -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File Win10.ps1 -include Win10.psm1 RequireAdmin SetTaskbarCombineAlways and powershell.exe -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File Win10.ps1 -include Win10.psm1 RequireAdmin ShowLargeTaskbarIcons

but the taskbar icons are still flatted out

Did you log out and log back in afterwards, so the changes are taken into effect? If so, then I probably don't understand what you mean by "flatted out". A screenshot might help.

Nevertheless, these tweaks are done on per-user basis, so you can simply change whatever you like via right clicking the taskbar and going to Taskbar settings. The tweaks do the same as manually modifying Use small taskbar buttons and Combine taksbar buttons options.
