How to move the taskbar on the left side of the screen in Windows 11

solved

Windows: Realign the Start button back to the left

With Windows 11, the Start button is centered in the taskbar, which may throw you off if you’ve been using Windows for years. Moving it back to the left is easy:

• Press the Windows Key + I to open the Settings app.
  
• Choose Personalization and Taskbar.
  
• Select Taskbar behaviors, then click Left under Taskbar alignment.
  

 

remove empty white space on the bottom left of Windows 11 taskbar

Hi leon26WW, My name is Merlina, I am an Independent Microsoft and a user like yourself.

I understand you have a concern regarding the space on the left side of your Windows 11 taskbar.

I recommend you move the start menu and the icons back to left, to do that please follow bellow steps:

1. Right-click on the Taskbar and open “Taskbar settings“.

2. After that, click on “Taskbar behaviors” to expand the menu.

3. Next, in the “Taskbar alignment” drop-down menu, choose “Left”.

4. That's it. Now, the Taskbar icons will move to the left on your Windows 11 PC.

I hope this helps! Thank you.

 

Moving the taskbar left side, Windows 11

This article describes how to do it: How to Move the Windows 11 Taskbar to Left or Right and Customize (helpdeskgeek.com) with a change to the registry.

Unfortunately, it isn't working as of June 26, 2022—at least on my computer. It does move the black bar to the left side, but it still tries to draw the icons from left to right (stopping at the right side of the now horizontally narrow bar). Right-clicking on the taskbar also doesn't do anything (i.e., show the popup menu with Taskbar Settings).

However, this might be the feature to watch in upcoming bug releases.
