Hi redhonker,
I am Sumit here to assist you with this question.
If you uncheck the "Use the Desktop language bar when it’s available" the option in Settings, it would get docked on the taskbar automatically.
Hope that helps.
Windows 11 language bar "docked in the taskbar" greyed out

Hi,
There are 3 options:
Floating On Desktop
Docked in the taskbar
Hidden
However, the docked option is greyed out. How can I get it docked in taskbar?
Thanks

On another PC, the bar is docked. but the option is also greyed out. So if I ever choose a different option, there is no way back.
