    I also want to "unlock" my task bar. I can't believe this is not in win 11, what a joke.

    I ALWAYS have my taskbar 1 click taller, especially with 4k desktop.

    Please fix this like yesterday! Sheesh!

    So I install Win11 and the very first thing I wanted to do was customise the taskbar to sit to the right.

    How is it even possible that this isn't featured anymore and how is it possible a year later this thread has gone nowhere!!!! Microsoft fix this!

    I was happy with Win 10 but finally allowed Win 11 to install after it kept asking every day.

    Now I have to go to an extra step to open apps because I can't raise the height of the taskbar to show all my app icons - I have to click on an overflow ... icon first, revealing a hard to see set of icons on a light background.

    I see people have been complaining about this for a year with no fixes by Microsoft.

    If you go to "help" it gives the Win 10 information about changing taskbar height, but doesn't tell you it's for Win 10 and not Win 11. I spent a long time trying to figure out why I couldn't do what it said.

    I guess the idiot that decided not to allow the taskbar to be larger is still employed, somehow.
