    Windows 11 Taskbar is not moveable even when settings are correct


    Support says to uncheck box to lock taskbar to move it. Did that, still couldn't move task bar IT IS BROKEN!!!!!!!!Has been broken since 11 was rolled out and still broken. WHY? I will NEVER upgrade to Windows 11 on my main computer and I am too disgusted to use the one I did upgrade on and can't reverse so now I have a laptop that is rendered useless by Microsoft: I am very unhappy and disgusted with Microsoft Windows, will switch to Mac asap

    Hello LiBeCa, welcome to the Microsoft community, I'll be happy to help you today;

    I understand that you are having problems with the taskbar in Windows 11;

    Where do you want to move the taskbar?

    Before answering this question, I suggest that you make sure you are up to date with the latest version of Windows 11;

    Press Windows key + i and go to Windows Update;

    Click Check for updates and do ALL pending updates;

    Restart Windows Explorer;

    Press together the keys: Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open the Task Manager;

    Locate the Windows Explorer process;

    Right-click on it and select the Restart option;

    Windows Explorer will restart;

    Try moving the taskbar again;

    Hope this helps, see you soon!

    Windows 11 Taskbar: Settings to Mimic Windows 10?

    Feature request for Windows 11 Taskbar and Start to mimic Windows 10.

    A simple toggle in settings to switch from Windows 11 Taskbar and Start to Windows 10.

    • Make customization options options available after selecting Windows 10 "Classic" Taskbar and Start:
      • Never Combine Buttons
      • Use small taskbar buttons
      • Position Taskbar: Left, Right, Top, Bottom
      • Drag to resize Taskbar
      • Pin
      • The full Taskbar slide out menu
      • 2-column Start menu
      • and so on...
    Third party software and registry tweaks can restore all of the Windows 10 Taskbar and Start features. It seems that Microsoft, as the "parent" of Windows, should be able to provide the same capability.
