You can set the form`s StartPosition property to Manual so you can manually position it. Then you can set the form`s Left and Top property to position it at the bottom left side of the screen.

If you want to make sure it is always on top of any other applications that are opened then set it`s TopMost property to True.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Public Class Form1
  2.  
  3.     Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
  4.         Me.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.Manual
  5.         Me.Left = 0
  6.         Me.Top = Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Bottom - Me.Height
  7.         Me.TopMost = True
  8.     End Sub
  9.  
  10. End Class
