Windows Central Question

In Windows 7 (on my work computer) I have my taskbar vertical and on my left edge. I have not found a way to do that in windows 10. Is it possible. I feel that it would be a little more user friendly on my Surface.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

Hmmm, I think the process is the same for Windows 7:

1. Right click on your Taskbar, click on Properties.
2. In the Taskbar and Start Menu Properties Windows, click the Taskbar tab (if it isn't already the active window).
3. Beside "Taskbar location on screen:", select your desired position from the drop down menu (in this case "Left").
4. Click "Apply" or "OK" if you want to close the Window immediately.

Just tested this now in my Windows 10 PC.

Should you wish to ask further questions or provide further details, please don't hesitate to create a Windows Central account and respond to this thread.
