Taskbar Auto-Hide Issue in Windows 11

Previously, in Windows 11, I was able to set the taskbar to auto-hide, and it would appear when I moved my mouse cursor to the bottom of the screen, even when using applications in full-screen mode. However, I have recently noticed that the taskbar does not appear when using full-screen applications, making it difficult to access certain features without exiting full-screen mode.

I have ensured that the auto-hide feature is enabled in the taskbar settings, and I have tried various troubleshooting steps, including restarting my computer and checking for updates, but the issue persists.

 

how to set taskbar to auto-hide in tablet mode?


I wrote a little application to auto-hide the taskbar on my tablets and would like to share it with anyone looking for something similar. In particular, I want the taskbar to hide in landscape mode where vertical space is precious, but not in portrait mode where there is plenty of vertical space.


Features of the application:

• Auto-hide taskbar can be turned on or off independently for each combination of tablet mode and screen orientation.
• Install for all users.
• Free and open source.

The application can be downloaded here:

Taskbar still showing up in 'Auto-hide' setting; Taskbar not showing on mouse hover in 'Auto-hide' setting; Start menu and Notification not showing when clicked.

1) Taskbar does not disappear even if I change my taskbar setting from 'auto-hide' to not and then back to 'auto-hide'. I have to restart everytime this happens.

2) Taskbar, when on 'Auto-hide', also not showing when I hover my mouse on the bottom of the screen. Taskbar is 'under' maximized applications (does not matter what application; Google Chrome, Sublime text, Adobe Reader, Microsoft Word, etc.). Have not
change taskbar settings from 'Auto-hide' to not then back to 'Auto-hide' for that taskbar to work normal again.

3) Start menu and Notification panel occasionally not showing up when clicked. Have tried the Powershell command solution; does not work. Have to restart computer to work properly again
