Hi

 

Right-click on the taskbar and untick Lock the Taskbar (if not unticked already)

Then move your mouse over the edge of the taskbar until the pointer is a two sided arrow the click and drag the taskbar to where you want it.

Then tick Lock the Taskbar again.

When i get the 2 arrows i cant move the taskbar down and the taskbar is not locked either im also gettin keyboard trouble some buttons are not where they are supposed to be on the keyboard if that makes sense!!

Does your taskbar look like this?

[Guest Wolfeymole]

If so then hover the mouse over the very top edge of the task bar untill it changes to a vertical double headed arrow like so.

Then drag the mouse down then click lock the taskbar like so.

Go into Control Panel then Regional and Language settings, hit the Keyboard tab and select English British.

Hi, the regional settings one I have seen elsewhere recently, for some reason it seems that a full reboot is needed for the UK settings to take effect after a change has been made.

Go back to the regional settings page, change it to USA, then back to UK, make sure you hit the "Apply" button, close the page then reboot straight away, see if that works.
