Hello,

I am facing so much of difficulties while working, as I am habituated to use the task bar position to top or right side of the screen. but Windows 11 doesn't have this feature to move the taskbar. Could you please bring this solution, to move the task bar.

Thanks

    YES, PLEASE ADD MY COMMENT. I've had taskbar vertically aligned on left side of my monitor for some time, more efficient for me and the way I work. What is the purpose of removing this capability to personalize the taskbar? As as shareholder since 1987, MICROSOFT has always emphasized more power and personalization in the hands of the end user. This would be easy to fix, I'm thinking. The removal of this feature in Windows 11 is terrible idea and must be provided quickly in the next upgrade or with a patch. Unbelievable fumble by MICROSOFT on this one.

    Microsoft better fix this asap. There is absolutely no reason this shouldn't be an option unless some moron is in charge or incapable of the Windows 11 dev... I am absolutely not moving to Windows 11 if this isn't fixed morons.

    Thing is that this goes beyond user preference. OLED screens are very susceptible to burn in if they have to display a graphic (LIKE A TASKBAR) in the same place for long periods of time. CNN logos etc affect TVs. So now that we are forced to have the taskbar in the same place ALL the time, Microsoft is implementing a software constraint that is going to damage our hardware. This could constitute damage to the thing itself (economic loss) owing to Microsoft's negligence in removing this feature for no good reason knowing we have no alternative. The damage is absolutely foreseeable.

    TLDR: Do yourself a favour Msft, and re-enable this before you're replacing oleds!
