That depends on if you are still active with the company. If you are not, then you are entitled to your vested portion of the account. If you are still active, then the plan is governed by the company's plan document. The Summary Plan Description (SPD) will have all the information you need on available options. Those options may include loans, hardship withdraws, and in-service withdraws. In-service withdraws may be restricted to people over age 59.5 but I've seen plan designed to allow rollover money, after tax money, etc eligible to be withdrawn as well.
You can rollover your 401k by applying for or opening a new 401k through your new employer. You don't have to do it though. Withdrawing from your 401k will result in penalties.
Yes. You can roll a previous employer's 401k balance into a new employer's 401k. You can also roll a previous employer's 401k balance into an individual retirement account (IRA) if you wish to maintain control over the investments.

Your employer should have their records electronically stored. The 401K is usually with a separate company anyhow. You will need to find out who sponsors your 401k and their contact information. Your employer will have access to this.

No, you do not pay taxes on employer 401k contributions until you withdraw the money from the account.
A 401k and a IRA are different. A 401k is a employer sponsored plan while a IRA is not.
If your employer does not offer a 401k plan, you may need to consider other retirement savings options.
Any employee, regardless of the type of work he or she performs, is eligible for a 401k if the employer offers it. An employer is not required to offer a 401k, however. If an employer-sponsored plan (401k, 403b, SEP IRA, etc.) is not available, often individuals will contribute to a Traditional IRA or Roth IRA.
The employer typically contributes a percentage of the employee's salary to the 401k plan, up to a certain limit.
The maximum amount an employer can contribute to a 401k plan is 19,500 per year as of 2021.
