Okay...this is probably a dumb question, but the toolbar that is normally on the bottom of the computer screen has somehow moved over to the right side of my screen and I don't know how to fix it I was typing something when the toolbar jumped to the side of the screen...I don't know what I hit to make it do that so I don't know how to fix it. I've tried dragging it back into place but that hasn't worked. I'm sure there's an easy answer to this that I just don't know but I've never had this happen to me before...can anyone tell me how to get the toolbar back to where it is supposed to go? Thanks.

right click the task bar and click properties. make sure the "lock the taskbar" box is unchecked and then click apply. now drag the task bar from the side to the buttom and drop it. done. :)

Just click inside an empty area in the toolbar, hold down the mouse button, and drag it back to the bottom until you see it appear there. Sometimes you might have to try different places to click, if it doesn't work at first. That should get it back where it goes!

Your instinct is right... you drag it back to the bottom.



First be sure it's not locked. Right-click on a blank area of the taskbar and make sure "Lock the Taskbar" is unchecked.



Then just left-click and hold on a blank area of the taskbar and drag it to the bottom. Then lock it so it can't move again.
