Did you know that the Start menu doesn't have to be centered in Windows 11? And did you know that the entire taskbar can still be dragged to other edges of the screen—for example, to the top?

In this guide, I'll show you how to deal with this. We'll go through all the taskbar settings one by one, and then we'll dig into the Registry Editor.
Let's get started!
