    Any suggestion?

    Ps.

    Found a solution at the following:
    Fix: Taskbar Auto-Hide Feature Not Working On Windows 10

    "Try restarting File Explorer or Windows Explorer" option worked for me

    Fingers crossed... and sorry for the post, I google all morning for a solution and couldn't find it.

    :)

    Why Won't the Taskbar Auto-Hide

    I have checked the "Auto-Hide the taskbar" option In the Taskbar and Start Menu Properties

    The taskbar never auto-hides, it is always open.

    It also insists on being on top of many applications, this is very frustrating.

    Is there a solution so the taskbar functions properly?

    How to auto hide the taskbar in Windows 10?

    Original Title: hiding the windows taskbar

    I have stumbled onto the fix for this problem, and it is a problem. In the taskbar properties menu, make sure the small icon button is selected with the auto hide.

    Auto-Hide the taskbar function not working

    Go to Task Manager

    Scroll to 'Windows Explorer'

    Right click

    Click 'Restart'

    This appears not to be a permanent fix as I have discovered. However it works for a long time.

    I have just had to repeat this tonight having done so about a week ago.

    Make sure your peek button is unticked
    Also make sure your locked button is unticked as well
    Then it should auto hide ok

    *CoolI was having trouble with the auto hide not working despite proper setting (Win 10).... i stumbled upon a fix. I was doing the setting with the right-click/properties approach. one afternoon i was doing something else and happen to be in "Settings"( through start menu/settings/personalization then... "show-hide task bar"switch. There seems to be something wrong with the right click shortcut option. but THIS worked! Yey!
