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

    I've had my Taskbar at the top since Win95, this is extremely frustrating that such a simple yet vital option has been removed.

    It's very annoying and counter productive, being forced to work with Win11 at work. Definitely not upgrading my home 10 regardless of the lifecycle conclusion in 2025.

    Came here to find out how to relocate the taskbar to the right side of my screen where I have had it for... over two decades? So, like everyone else, I'm disappointed to learn that this functionality was removed at an early stage of the redesign. Did they think it was for our own good or something? Please undo.

    Sincerely,

    Jonathan

    John J.D. - please, definitely send my feedback to make the taskbar moveable again. I have no choice but to use Windows 11 for work. I will definitely NOT upgrade to Windows 11 on my personal machines - and it will be primarily, frankly, because of this problem. I know others who share my sentiment. And, indeed, 'To God be the glory!' - Amen. :-)

    I submitted feedback directly to Microsoft but I'll put it here too - not being able to move the taskbar is maybe the worst design choice since getting rid of the headphone jack on the iphone. Don't be like apple, add this feature back!
