Taskbar location
For the love of all that is holy, please let us move the taskbar again. You've taken away 20 years of muscle memory here.

gmveesaert Yes, it would be nice to have more customization options! Here is a video, using a registry hack- https://www.bing.com/videos/riverview/relatedvideo?q=how+to+move+taskbar+to+side+windows+11&mid=0535F03101BD9E6B32850535F03101BD9E6B3285&FORM=VIRE .

- boojeeeCopper ContributorAgreed. I'm used to the taskbar at the top of my screen. Please fix this.

- JeremyTBradshawSteel ContributorI too am lost without the ability to put entire taskbar on the side of my screen, which makes it vertical. There are way more vertical stripes of space available to waste than there are horizontal. With all the precious real estate that various UI's waste, people who try the taskbar on the side generally stick with it once they realize the savings they've mustered from the move. ....and then Windows 11 just poof gone as if we don't matter! Boo hoo, but seriously, I wish it would come back and once I finally commit to the move to Windows 11, I'll certainly put my feedback in there.

Reza_Ameri Hi, I want it at the bottom of the screen thanks with the option to change it's position.
- Reza_AmeriSilver ContributorCurrently you only have it in the button and you could place option in the left or leave it in center.
- Dee_34Copper ContributorI couldn't agree more. A recent Windows 11 update has removed ALL taskbar alignment options on my computer and put it on the side. I hate it. All I can say is why??? If it's not broke don't flaming well "fix" it.

Hi gmveesaert ,
If you are thinking how it's now in center. You can still move the taskbar to the left.
