Microsoft finally started paying attention to what its customers are saying about Windows 11. Good news: You will soon be able to move the taskbar to the top or side of the display again!

Nice write-up Ed...

@edbott Hi Ed, great write-up - but am I missing the link to the actual blog post itself?

@ftp_alun I had entered an incorrect link format so it wasn’t displaying. Should be fixed now.

@edbott Breathing some fire on this one Ed, thank you 🙏

@edbott

Chuck Norris just pushes Windows task bars wherever he wants them.

@edbott I still think the odds favor Windows 12 being pure garbage, whenever they get around to it.
