Why can't I move my taskbar FULLY VERTICAL on the RIGHT side for Windows 11 update???

Question

Dear Microsoft Team,

I am writing to express my deep frustration with the fact that, in Windows 11, the taskbar cannot be moved to the right side of the screen in a fully vertical orientation. This is not a minor inconvenience—it is a critical usability flaw that significantly impacts my workflow and productivity.

For years, Windows has allowed users to customize their taskbar placement—a fundamental feature that enabled people to work the way that best suits them. As a long-time user who depends on a right-side, vertically stacked taskbar, this forced restriction in Windows 11 is not just disappointing, it is outrageous.

I should not have to “get used to” an arbitrary design decision that actively makes my work harder. I rely on a right-side vertical taskbar to:

• Optimize screen real estate, especially on widescreen monitors.
• Improve accessibility and efficiency by keeping icons and information in a familiar, natural place.
• Reduce unnecessary mouse movement, enhancing speed and ergonomics.

By removing this option, Microsoft is disregarding years of user preference and workflow adaptation. This is a step backward in customization and flexibility—one of the defining strengths of Windows.

I demand that Microsoft immediately prioritize restoring the ability to move the taskbar to the right in a fully vertical layout. This should not be a difficult technical implementation—it was already a core feature in previous versions of Windows.

I sincerely hope Microsoft listens to actual users rather than forcing unnecessary restrictions upon them. Please take this complaint seriously and address this regression in functionality as soon as possible.

Looking forward to a response and, more importantly, a solution.

Best regards,
