Windows 11 introduces a new look by centering the taskbar, similar to the style used in macOS. While some users may appreciate this fresh design, others might prefer the traditional left-aligned taskbar found in older versions of Windows.
If you’re one of those who want the classic taskbar back, don’t worry—there’s an easy fix to move it back to the left side.
How to Move the Taskbar in Windows 11
Here’s how to reposition the taskbar:
- Right-click on an empty space in the taskbar.
- Select Taskbar settings from the menu.
- In the settings window, click on Taskbar behaviors.

Alternatively, you can adjust the taskbar alignment through the Settings app:
