Change the Taskbar Position To Top Of Screen In Windows 11
Change The Taskbar Position To Top Of Screen In Windows 11
Lots of people have the taskbar in different positions, but a lot has changed with Windows 11, you only have two positions, bottom center and bottom left. I will show you a registry tweak to put taskbar on to of your monitor screen.

Does this work on the windows Insider program ?
I like your video but it seems this is no longer working. The change defaults back to '03' automatically.

This works but breaks as its not final ..the start menu appears on the left when im in centered mode..and other wifi settings and notification panel still appears below as before..this is not a fix, but its worth appreciating the efforts.ty
thank you and it works, but unfortunalty I'm using multiple screen (3 screens ) most of the time, it works only on main screen not in other two screens. is there way it could be done for all 3 screens ?
thanks, helpful, what about your extended screens? always on bottom?
Thank you very much 👍. For listening my comment from previous video ❤️
Hi Brian Wondering if there is a way to get the clock (bottom right corner) to display seconds, like windows 10...Had it enabled then but it wont display for windows 11, suspect it has something to do with the current position of the clock? Thanks!
how about multiple screen? my main screen got change to top but the other 2 screen still bottom. any idea how to make 3 screen taskbar to top?
Hello! For some reason the 01 value keeps reverting back to 03 after I restart Windows Explorer in the Task Manager, so the task bar never makes it to the top. Any suggestions?

Thank you so much man
I have a 21 inch drawing tablet at the bottom of my table, that's blocking the bottom part of my main screen, so I really needed the taskbar removed from the bottom. Was easy to do in Win10, not sure why Win11 removed it. Appreciate the help.
Is there a way to fix fast settings after changing taskbar position to the top? I can't find anything about it yet.
is there a way to make it work on both monitors ? it only worked on the main one for me.
Hi mate, im learning system admin atm and I was wondering how you were able to find this setting? How did you know where to look in the registry and how did you know it was the value under FE that determines how taskbar is positioned? Thanks I really appreciate this registry hack!

Nice video! I've heard that in a future build of Windows 11 they will be returning the search bar back to the bottom of the taskbar which honestly isn't bad for me because of how I'm so used to it in Windows 10 already.

@@Britec09 I could be wrong or I could be right I believe I saw it from a tweet on twitter where someone asked Microsoft about it. I'm not exactly sure but I'm taking it with a grain of salt until we all see for ourselves in a future build remember this is still early and lot's more stuff can be changed between now and when it's ready to be released to the public.
There seems to be a side effect of this change, at least on my PC. If I move the taskbar to the top of the screen, my stacked windows (you know, multiples windows of 1 program) stop displaying when you hover over them. So, if I have multiple emails open I cannot retrieve them after minimizing them as the stacked windows do not show up for selection. Or if I have multiple directories open, if I minimize one of them I cannot retrieve it again. I use multiple screens, and the ones where I left the taskbar on the bottom can still display the other windows when hovering over the program. It is just the screen where the taskbar is at the top that has this issue. It's almost like the hover mechanism is still displaying them above the taskbar, just off-screen where I cannot access them. Any idea how to fix this, without reverting the taskbar position back to the bottom?

What if you have dual monitors? How do you change the 2nd, or can't you?
Hey Brian I don't care about the taskbar being anywhere but on the bottom but are you telling me that Windows still doesn't support dark mode in the system windows like regedit, task monitor, disk management, confirmation windows etc?
It's not working now...can you please make video for latest windows 11 update...how to move task bar yo top of the screen

@@Britec09 this regedit hack is broken. everytime you restart explorer, windows automatically changes the "01" value back to "03". any other way to do this?
Thanks! But once the taskbar is set to screen top, i'm unable to see the window preview when i place the mouse pointer on the taskbar icon For apps such as word or acrobat reader which can open multiple windows, i'm unable to switch to the app by clicking on it; since the preview is happening above the taskbar which is out of bounds for the screen could give a fix for this as well

How do we do this for multiple monitors? This way only makes the main monitor move.

Did NOT work, even if restarting, by some strange reason the system reverts and it is an endless value of 03 in FE. I did OK and nothing happened Any suggestions or another workaround?
Followed all the steps and it didn't work for me. Not sure why.
I have a question, this worked when I had windows 10 but once I updated windows 11, nothing happens. Any suggestions?
How about Quicklaunch bar…still available?

Do you know how to do the same thing to the taskbar on another monitor? Doing this only moves the taskbar on the monitor you set as primary.

How can i set the clock with seconds above the date? :C
Didn't work for me...rigorosly followed the instructions posted here. After reststarting Windows Explorer I tried restarting Windows. Still at the bottom. i found that after restarting Explorer and/or restarting Windows the value was change back to 03. Any ideas?

Here in my laptop,, i don't find setting affter going to Rects3😢😢
It's been patched mate. Got a new fix?
this did not work , the last time of restarting the windows exploret did not move the task bar to the top
Hi @britec09 Please make video about task manager. Whenever we right click on the taskbar task manager option is not showing. And also please show us how we can easily get refresh option like previous windows 10. In windows 11 we have to press shift+F10 for refresh.

Appreciate the effort. But? For me it does not work... Even with a full restart of the computer. Taskbar stubbornly stuck to the bottom of the Window. Keep bumping the taskbar with the pen when writing on the tablet screen. Opens up new Windows... Only one of the numerous glitches. Thanks for the effort!
idk why but it dosent work it just makes it still stay at the bottom probably its patches????
It doesn't work on hp 13inch x360 laltops
it doesn't have any effect on my task bar
Not working for me
Am I the only one this hasn't worked for? When I restart Windows Explorer, the task bar just flickers and pops back up on the bottom. Also, when I attempt to go back into Registry Editor, the 01 has gone back to 03.

Back then i could just move the taskbar by switching a setting and moving it with my mouse........
it isnt working. I hate win11 its just a trash- cant even put the bar at the left or right how i used to and CANT GO BACK TO WIN10
Install Windows 11 on any PC - Without TPM 1 Just make a Windows 10 USB & Delete the Install.ESD File in the sources dir. 2 Then Copy the Install.WIM file off of the Windows 11 USB to the Windows 10 USB sources dir. 3 Boot Computer to the USB to Install Windows 11.
I fail to see any need for Win11 as opposed to Win10.
HOW TO MOVE IT TO THE RIGHT SIDE
What I learned today after "upgrading" to Windows 11 is that I already don't like it. Something as simple as dragging the taskbar to the left, right, top or bottom with the mouse, now becomes a labyrinth for the use of only two options. HOW IS THIS AN UPGRADE IF YOU LOSE OPTIONS? My mother used to say "If It Ain't Broke, Don't Fix It"... I just went to 11 and now I want to go back to 10. I now dread seeing what else 11 has in store for me. Sh!$%

just type taskbar behaviors in the settings and change to left or right, why are you using the backend settings for normal users

Really? 99.99% don't have Windows 11. Even after the official launch, many still won't have Windows 11 because of MS ridiculous requirements unless the remove those restrictions. I will stick to Windows 10 for the next 5 years or so.
