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.
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Totally agree with you but what we can do? This topic is almost 2 years old. For me its clear that MS just doesn't want to restore vertical taskbar, its their intention. I dont understand their reasons. I think at some point in the future somebody will develop windows shell (now its explorer) replacement.
That's awesome, but I cant use third party at work...
If you have admin rights on your PC, "Open-Shell Menu" works great. Haven't had any issues since I installed it on my home PC. Does exactly what you need and so much more.
If only there was a way to install it on my work machine.
Dear Microsoft, Please this vertical taskbar is important to a lot of us. Why change it? Besiedes, I was even thinking you would make the taskbar a bit more transparent and even reduce the size of the icons so we can all see our screens perfectly.
Come on now MS, restore the option to have a vertical taskbar!! Vertical screen space is super important, why wasting it with the taskbar?! I am already regretting upgrading to windows 11 - which I would not have done if not forced btw..
