    The question is how to move the taskbar to the left, not how to align the icons to the left in the bottom taskbar.

    @Microsoft: please bring back the option to move the taskbar to the left. I cannot believe this option is removed, it's like removing the option to use a keyboard and mouse. Me and most of my colleagues and friends have the taskbar to the left of the screen for the last two decades. It makes no sense to have it at the bottom if you use an ultrawide screen. Because you lose a massive amount of screen real estate. Please listen to the feedback of your customers because this is the dumbest thing ever

    The taskbar takes up no vertical space if you autohide it. I know, this is too much trouble, and the obsession with having the taskbar on the left is overpowering.

    I tried to autohide the task bar and found it to be inconsistent and doesn't always work. It would be more helpful to provide suggestions that actually work. It seems your ability for snark is intact yet unhelpful.

    THIS! The was the clear question! Why did Windows 11 move taskbar to bottom! I have spent an hour trying to move it back to left side vertically! This is just an absurd waste of our time!!

    That doers not work. It only moves icons to left. We want to move the whole task bar to to left side of the screen like windows xp.
