How to move notification area back to the right side of the screen.

Tester · Sep 17, 2024

Hi!

After a reboot my notification area is at the right side, usually after a few hours of working it goes to the left side of te screen.
Is there a setting/registry setting i can use to plop it back to the right side?

Are you using Start11 to get the taskbar at the top?

If you’re using Start11v2?:
Make sure you're up to date
Start11 v2 = v2.11
Start11 v1 = v1.55

If updating doesn't help, change the enhanced Taskbar settings to show “Medium” or "Small with wide icon spacing" But not “Small” and see if one of those changes back to the top right and it stays there.
There was an old bug from last year that did this.

You probably would be better off posting this in the Stardock Start11 Forum section.

Probably not what you want but this looks interesting. I might try it. Read the documentation, use the latest release if opting to try it and move Notifications “anywhere” (allegedly)

It looks like a useful program so I tried it out of curiosity. I couldn't move the notifications from the left so I uninstalled it. I think it's because I'm using StartAllBack.

Reading this, i guess you have the same issue? So the cause is StartAllBack?

I'm not sure. If it is, it's probably because SAB uses a different Taskbar. Older versions of SAB won't work on Windows 24H2. Sometime later today I'll try disabling SAB and try it again.
