If you wish to move the taskbar from its default position along the bottom edge of the screen to any of the other three edges of the screen, do the following:

1. Left-click on a blank portion of the taskbar; ensure the Lock the taskbar or Lock all taskbars is NOT checked.
2. Right-click a blank portion of the taskbar.
3. Hold down the right button of the mouse, and then drag the cursor to the location on the screen where you want to place the taskbar. For example, you may want the taskbar to be positioned vertically on the right side of your screen.
4. After you move the cursor to the position on your screen where you now want the taskbar, release the mouse button.

Note: The taskbar can be docked on the left side, right side, top, or bottom of your screen. You cannot move the Start button from side to side on the taskbar.
