Windows 10: Taskbar icons moved over to the left...

Hello and hope you're all keeping well,

This morning I suddenly realised that some of my taskbar icons had moved over to the left...

Normally I only have the Windows start icon on the left then the usual show hidden icons/speaker/network/ time/date icons on the right. In the midddle I have the task view/Microsoft store/Edge/file explorer/OE Classic and Brove icons. It is these six that have moved over to the left.

Any help getting these back to the middle of the task bar would be appreciated. I have looked on here but coulddn't find any obvious answers...
