    All my controls on the left side
    « on: February 06, 2011, 07:23:04 PM »
    I went out for dinner.  When I got back the control bar that is normally at the bottom is now on the left side.  Using MS Windows 7.

    Help - how do I get it to go back to the bottom.

    Thanks!

    Hold the left mouse button down over the area and drag it to wherever you want...

      Could you post a screenshot to understand more as to what type of control bar(s)you need to move?

      Right click on the taskbar. If there is a check next to "Lock the taskbar" uncheck it to unlock. Now drag it back down to the bottom and lock it in place.
