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.

    Hi 0000_4

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    They changed the position of the volume and brightness on-scree controls in version 22h2, and currently, there is no setting or even a known registry hack that can move that to the top left of the screen.

    Many people have requested this setting to be able to move the bars, the best option is to open the Feedback Hub (Windows Key + F) and provide your feedback to the developers there on the new bars, the more people that report this, the sooner they will provide this as a setting in Windows 11.

    Hello Dave, do you know if anything has changed in the meantime?

    The bar doesn't need to be in the top left. But really, anywhere else would be better than in the bottom middle as that's where subtitles usually are and I watch a lot of subtitled media.

    Turning the bar off completely would also be an option for me as long as it still changes the volume.
