To move the taskbar to the left side of the screen in Windows 11, you can follow these steps:

1. Right-click on an empty space on the taskbar. A context menu will appear.
2. From the context menu, select "Taskbar settings." The Taskbar settings window will open.
3. In the Taskbar settings window, find the "Taskbar alignment" option.
4. Click on the dropdown menu next to "Taskbar alignment" and select "Left."
5. Once you select "Left," the taskbar will automatically move to the left side of the screen.

That does not move the task bar to the side of the screen it only moves the buttons which are on the task bar, which remains on the BOTTOM of the screen.

How do you move the actual task bar, like you could in previous versions of windows. Some people do not want the task bar on the bottom of the screen.

Same problem here! I have tried everything!
