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

    This is an appalling decision by Microsoft. Shame on the developers for taking away configurability! Not to mention IGNORING the feedback/requests from users for OVER THREE YEARS! I've been using a left-hand dock/taskbar for decades and my productivity will TANK without it. As so many users have pointed out, the vertical space on monitors is already too short and interferes with seeing full-height documents. I'm a human factors engineer and you've destroyed the ergonomics and usability of your OS. I've been forced to update by my employer and they've also disabled the feedback feature. This is unacceptable and extremely frustrating. FIX THIS IMMEDIATELY.

    WHAT?

    The feature was always present in previous Windoze and now we need to ?add? the feature back. This is a lack of respect towards MS customers.

    Agreed. Same issue here. Need the task bar to the right side of the screen.

    I've been an accountant for many years. I'm starting a new role where W11 is required.

    The inability to move the task bar to the right side of my screen is a huge hindrance to being productive. There isn't enough room on the task bar at the bottom to show the description of the spreadsheet or the word document etc... that I'm in.

    Maybe I should just get used to the stacking option but I don't like that and when I can move the task bar to the right of my screen I can see every tab that is open and its description i.e. there is no hovering to find what you are looking for.

    This is a HUGE productivity design flaw. Please fix this MS.

    I agree. I have also used this feature since I can remember... having to reconfigure my brain to now click the bottom of the screen has been making my productivity slow down tremendously...

    Very frustrating.
