Where is the taskbar in Windows 11

Windows 11 doesn’t have many new features and only a few that users could update. This is despite the fact that Windows 11 is a free update for Windows 10 users. One big, and very obvious difference between Windows 11 and Windows 10 design is.

Windows 11 has a new design and this new design comes with modifications to some of the older Windows features.

Where’s the Taskbar for Windows 11?

The taskbar is the bar that appears, basically, at the bottom of the screen. It goes from one edge of the screen to the other. The Start button is in the left corner and the group of images, and the clock together makes up the system tray in the right corner.

Windows 11 still has a taskbar and it will be exactly where you expect it to be; at the bottom of the screen. It works a little differently now eg you can’t right click on it and open the task manager, and the start button, as well as all the other pinned apps, is located in the middle instead of on the side left.

Conclusion

Most ‘new’ taskbar behavior on Windows 11 is reversible. The only exception is the context table. Whatever you do, as of now, there is no way on the context table to restore the taskbar. You can only access the taskbar options and nothing more. Access to the task manager from the taskbar is gone until someone develops a third-party app for the task.
