You're not alone: even the former CEO of Microsoft's advertising can't put the Windows 11 taskbar on the left yet
It should roll out soon, though.
Microsoft's former advertising CEO, Mikhail Parakhin, expresses frustration that the option to relocate the Windows 11 taskbar to the left remains unavailable even after updating to the Windows 11 26H2 version. Parakhin, who prefers the taskbar at the bottom, emphasizes that offering users the choice to position it differently is preferable to denying them the option altogether.
Despite the successful installation of the Windows 11 26H2 update, Parakhin found himself unable to move the taskbar, deeming it "not usable yet." Some users in the online community noted that while Windows 11 26H2 is widely available, not all features have been fully implemented. In particular, the ability to customize the taskbar location has not been universally accessible to everyone, resulting in a mixed experience for Windows 11 users.
Microsoft's decision to introduce this long-awaited feature is seen as a positive step, even if Parakhin himself would not utilize it.
