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.
Why we can't move the taskbar in windows11. Can we bring the updates in this version, to move the taskbar position?
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

2025-01-27T07:34:05+00:00 I, too, are keen to join in on this feedback! Most ergonomic assessments recommend the taskbar be moved to the top or side of the screen to prevent people having further neck issues by looking down all the time! I have neck issues and it helps me significantly to have the taskbar at the top of the screen (or right side).

On behalf of a lot of people here and myself, I kindly ask Microsoft colleagues to look into this option and let us, the users, choose the way we want to use the taskbar and organize our work. Thank you in advance.

please
allow
to move
taskbar
to the
side.
You see
screens
can be tall
for vertical
viewing
which
doesn't
allow
much room
for systems
and app
tabs. And
windows can be very wide
that allows
for vertical
stacking
of whole
words
that shoiw
specific file
names of
the file
open in an
app. Rather than
a cryptic icon.
This is
a very short
sighted miss
by MS.

2025-01-29T18:00:06+00:00 PLEASE put the functionality back to allow users to move the taskbar to the sides or top of the screen. I am frustrated with it being at the bottom when I have had it moved to the top for so many years.
