Computer related question for DUers with Windows

[VermontDem2004]

You know on your desktop you have your toolbar with your start menu, clock, and whatever else stuff you have on there? Well the the toolbar used to be on the bottom of the screen and I accidently did something (not sure what) that moved the toolbar to the right side of my screen. Now I can't move it back to the bottom of my screen and it is annoying on the right side of my screen, how do you move it back to the bottom?

1. Just grab it and drag it

with the mouse, of course!

2. How do you grab it?

I am clicking on it and trying to move it and it won't move.

7. it won't appear to move until you get it all the way back to the bottom

grab it somewhere in the middle, away from icons/buttons

18. I did

I had desktop and computer checked, I guess I did it when i was clicking around when the taskbar was on the ride side. When I dragged it to the bottom the taskbar was too big and I couldn't make it smaller, I unchecked desktop and computer and viola, my toolbar is smaller. :)

3. first, right click it

if "lock the taskbar" is checked, uncheck it.

next. put your arrow on an area of the bar that is empty. Hold down the left mouse button and drag the mouse to the bottom of the screen, keeping the mouse button held down. let go of the mouse button when the bar is on the bottom of the screen.

then right click the bar again and select "lock taskbar"

8. Ok

I right clicked it and I do not see "lock the taskbar", so then I tried to hold down the mouse and drag it to the bottom of my screen and it won't move at all.

5. hi

Just use your mouse and "grab" the bar and drag it back down to the bottom of your screen

6. Drag it back.

If that doesn't work, right click a blank space on the taskbar, and if "Lock the Taskbar" is checked, uncheck it. Then drag it back.

12. check post #8

9. Right Click the TaskBar

Then remove the check from the menu item Lock the Taskbar. Then you should be able to drag the taskbar anywhere. ;-)

11. check post #8

14. My taskbar doesn't have a Lock either, but

as everyone else has said, click on the bar, hold mouse button down, and drag it away from the edge; you should see a horizontal line, let go of the mouse button. I tried it on mine and it worked.

[VermontDem2004]

15. I got it down

But I have another problem, the taskbar is too big and I can't make it smaller.

16. Problem solved

Thanks for the help
