  1. PLEASE UNLOCK THE TASK BAR IN WINDOWS 11!


    I, and I see in this community, love the previous unlock taskbar feature to be able to move it around where I wanted on my screens. Please bring this back, as I understand this is not possible with current Windows 11. The new taskbar is great, but please, this feature is so helpful in a creative workflow and how myself, and apparently others in this community, have already mentioned to your team.Thank you, in advance, for listening to our request on this and all your efforts to step up Windows throughout the years for us Windows users. I really want you guys to be better than Apple.

    :)

    Task Bar

    I cannot get my task bar to close when in full screen mode. I have tried going to task manager and resetting windows explorer; I have also unlocked the task bar, tried to drag it down, and re-lock it. Neither has worked for me. Any suggestions?
