    I want the whole task bar (not just the apps) to be moved to left so that the task bar and the apps are vertically placed on the left side of the screen. Is this possible? I was able to do this easily in the previous Window version.

    I am no computer expert but it can't be that difficult to move that task bar can it?

    So i am not the only one that thinks that Microsoft somehow hired all the mac UI designers and that's why its slowly turning into iOS?

    Since you're hellbent on making us have Apple OS, why didn't you just allow us to make the taskbar transparent? We can't make the icons small, we can't move the taskbar to free up vertical space on our 16x9 displays. We can't adjust the size of the taskbar... all we can do it hide it or hide labels.

    Oh... we can now have badges on the taskbar!! I guess that makes up for all the functionality we used to have but was taken away.

    Microsoft, why do you sign off on allowing your engineers to remove trusted and fully-used functionality for absolutely no reason whatsoever? You do it repeatedly. Have you not yet learned a less on on how not to do things from Windows Mobile?

    One positive thing you've done is you've moved your products to the internet, completely eliminating the need for a product (Windows) that continues to make itself useless and pushing users to Chromebooks!

    Hello all

    Indeed, the provided reply doesn't answer the question.

    I get it fixed using this external fix you can find here : https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher

    Not the best to do, but the only way I found so far.

    I hope Microsoft will work on that fix soon.
