How do I move the task bar from horizontal position to vertical position? Company just installed windows 11 and I can't seem to figure out how to move it.

2024-12-11T10:56:50+00:00 I want to add to the sentiment that not being able to move the TASKBAR vertically to the left side or right side is most inconvenient. I would also like to petition Microsoft to bring it back please, help us peasants who slave all day staring at screens to receive a little solace by giving us back the ability to control one thing in life...that be our taskbar location.
