  3. Explorer Navigation Bar Position

    Actually I'm referring to the "Favorites" listing positioned on the right side of the screen. Between it and the rest of the screen is positioned a vertical "bar" containing five choices (Favorites, Reading List, Books, History, Downloads). This "bar"
    was horizontal on previous revisions of the Windows (10) browser.

    All of my previous remarks pertain to this. I'm familiar with the Task Bar normally located at the bottom of the screen.

    Thank you.
