    Still not updating until you let me keep my taskbar where it is.

      Are you referring to the centered taskbar?

            My taskbar is laid vertically along the left edge of the screen, so I can have full ungrouped small-icon text labels for every application. Monitors are wide, horizontal real-estate is cheaper than vertical.

                Technically I do left-side-left-monitor, right-side-right-monitor, left is primary, right is chat.

              StartAllBack can do that for you, and a few more things as well: https://www.startallback.com/

            Probably on the side of the screen, which is also where I like it. This change was actually a tipping point for me to give Linux another chance for daily driving.
