Windows 10: "Automatically hide the taskbar in desktop mode" keeps re-enabling itself.

Hello, I was wondering if there was any fix to this issue? This has never happened to any computer I've owned before and it only started happening today. I've tried everything I could to stop this from happening, but nothing has been a solution.
