Hi

Make sure the Taskbar is unlocked - right-click it and uncheck 'Lock the Taskbar' - then try and left-drag it with your mouse to where you want it. Lock the Taskbar again after you have moved it

Make sure the taskbar is unlocked. Right click on it and then remove the checkmark beside "lock the taskbar" if there is one. Now left click an an empty space in the system tray( the area where your clock and active program icons are located) and holding the mouse button down drag your cursor to the bottom of your window. The taskbar should pop down to the bottom now. Welcome to the eXPeriance. {:~)

Although by default the task bar appears on the bottom of the
screen, it can be on any of the sides you prefer it on. To move
it from any side to another, simply click on an unused part of it
and drag it where you want it.

If it won't move, it may be locked. In that case, right click on
it and uncheck "Lock the taskbar," then try again.

It didn't decide to change on its own. The way it got there is
that you (or someone else) moved it as above, but without
realizing you did it.
