rnefm I got the solution to this.

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
