Taskbar is stuck on the left side of my screen
After switching from portrait to landscape mode on my second monitor, my taskbar seems to be stuck on the left side of the screen. My taskbar also no longer has any icons and all of the icons that ar...
Did you get this issue fixed. I have the exact same issue.
Please advise what you did to resolve?
- bump!! got the same problem. This is the only thread I've found with the same issue. Been searching for ages and tried most suggestions for taskbars not working; to no avail. I use multiple screens with taskbars displayed on all of them. The only one that doesn't work is the main screen taskbar. I did not change the monitor orientation or anything. Since moving to Win 11, gotta say the task bar issues are the things that have annoyed me the most. It lags when trying to move icons around when you have taskbars on multiple displays, which is a known issue. Also the auto-hide function always glitches and doesn't work a majority of the time when I full screen programs. Might consider going back to Win7 or something else..
rnefm I got the solution to this.
yoy need to fix it in the registry.
Do a google search for windows 10 on how to move taskbar to the left.
And it will show you how to make it also regular.
this occurred when some program crashed and reconfigured my task bar. It works now.
had to change the setting to 30.
hope that helps.- thanks heaps! that fixed it! wish I had seen this sooner as I ended up just creating a new user account and migrating my data over. XD in case anyone else in the future has the same issue, the fix is as below:
1) open regedit: "Windows Key + R", type in "regedit", hit "OK"
2) navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\StuckRects3
3) double click on the "Settings" file
4) change the 13th pair of digits in the sequence to change the taskbar alignment:
"00" Left
"01" Top
"02" Right
"03" Bottom
