    Whoever is responsible for the decision of removing this feature from windows 11, should be swiftly fired or demoted. What a misery!

    I must agree that the person responsible for this should be fired... It makes no sense to have a fixed position for the taskbar in 2024.

    Sorry, link worked earlier, this worked as of 9:52:46 PM November 16, 2023,

    https://github.com/gjf/Windows-11-ExplorerPatcher-Installer

    This tool allows to install/uninstall/update an ExplorerPatcher (dxgi.dll or ep_setup.exe) - a wonderful tool from Valentin-Gabriel Radu available at https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher

    Works with both x64 and x32.

    You can check the source in Win11EP.bat (yes, I am so dumb and lazy that I make this tool as command-line batch) or simply use compiled Win11EP.exe.

    Moves the taskbar itself to the left side of the computer monitor screen like Windows 10 taskbar, NOT JUST the bar's information as so many answers to this question accomplish.

    I'm so frustrated too. I need to move the bar to the side since the task bar covers a server's taskbar while using RDP. All Microsoft products, but terrible compatibility. Now the workaround doesn't work and the system instantly reverts the regedit that moves the taskbar to the side. Why destroy a functional UI and replace it with something that makes life worse for the sysadmins and engineers that use the product to its full extent?
