Default My taskbar has moved.

My taskbar has moved from the bottom to the right side of the screen. It
goes from the top to the bottom. I've read the other posts on this subject
and nothing works. The tasbar is not locked and I can't slide it down by
left clicking on the unused portion of the taskbar. Any suggestions would be
appreciated.
Thanks for your help. Trent.

To move the taskbar, drag it (from a clear area) to the bottom.

Make sure it's unlocked.

I've tried this several times. I have not been able to move it. The taskbar
is not locked.

Try again. It works.Be sure to click *within* it, not on the edge; clicking
on the edge and dragging will resize it.

Trent - I'm having the same problem, and no amount of clicking and dragging
is putting the taskbar back at the bottom. Did you figure it out??????

Hi,

Right click the taskbar, if "lock the taskbar" is checked, click on it to
uncheck it. Now, left click and hold down on a blank area of the taskbar
near the start button and drag it to the next screen edge and release. If it
doesn't go in one direction, then try the other one. Repeat until you have
it where you want it. Relock the taskbar in place if desired.
