Hi, usually on my screen's display, when I pressed the volume button on the keyboard, the volume bar will show on my screen at the top left. However, I accidentally pressed a lot of buttons, and the volume bar change from top left of the screen to the middle bottom of screen.

How do I change it back to the top left of screen? Thank you.

    I would like to change from middle bottom to top left too.

    Dev team validating this overlay are freaking idiots.

    Subs, video slider, why the hell would you want an overlay to mask this ? Why ?

    I completely agree. It is like some of the forced changes that come with the updates are pointless and given zero forethought to them, like how the change might negatively effect usage of the product. I hate turning on my laptop after an update to my entire arrangement being messed up and having to play detective to get it back to a workable one, if there’s even a way to fix it. This, plus all the annoying extras forced upon you taking up data and space with no way to delete is why I will 100% never buy another microsoft Windows laptop.

    Another needless DEprovement from Microsoft in their pursuit to be more like Apple, but without any semblance of the design sensibilities or thought about how it might affect their user's workflow. If I had any choice at all for an OS for my work PC, I would leave MS in the dust as fast as I can manage.

    Anyhow, thanks for making me click on the new volume bar and blasting out my eardrums a dozen times by now. Hate this company with a passion. Every new release is a pain.

    I, also, would like the ability to move the volume bar. bottom center is not optimal.
