Windows 10: Hidden taskbar doesn't show up when i move the mouse at the bottom of the screen

i know that's already a known issue and there's already a post about this, but i wanted to do a new post cause the last post was solved in a way that didn't work for me since i have AMD graphic card and they resolved the issue for nVidia graphic card. So for me the problem persists. I can't make the hidden taskbar show up unless i close all the windows and apps. Please, it's driving me insane, i need a fix asap.

Taskbar won't show when I mouse to bottom of screen

This started after I installed the Creator update two days ago. It was working fine before.

I want the taskbar to show when I mouse down to the bottom of the screen. Since the update it will only show when there are no other windows open and disappear when I move the mouse away. So if I open a browser window then go to the bottom of the screen to maybe start another app the taskbar doesn't show and I cannot then access my apps.

I don't know if this has been raised before as I cannot find anything on a search but I would like to get the taskbar 'hiding and showing' when I mouse on the bottom of the screen.

Any suggestions please?

 

Hidden taskbar not showing on mouse over

ChrisVroon: "The problem occurs when the scaling (change the size of text, apps, etc)
is set to a level higher than 125%. Any value up to 125% is fine, but 150% and over cause the taskbar to stay hidden (the exact value might vary with the display resolution you set)."

I just want to add that, having found all my scaling in the recomended patterns, I went to the last part of Chris comment: "(the exact value
might vary with the display resolution you set)." So mine was in 1360 x 768 when the recomended was just 1366 x 768. So I adjusted that and it worked so fine.

Thank you again, ChrisVroon

Taskbar hidden behind windows

Hello, sookie(2)

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

There are a few possible solutions to fix the taskbar hidden behind windows issue. Here are some of them:

• Check your taskbar settings and make sure that the auto-hide feature is turned off. This feature can cause the taskbar to disappear when you move your mouse over a maximized window. To turn off auto-hide, press and hold (or right-click) any empty space on the taskbar, and select Taskbar settings.
  

• Change your display resolution to an appropriate one for your monitor. Sometimes, the taskbar can be hidden if the resolution is too high or too low for your screen size.
  

• Resize the window to a non-maximized state. This can be done by clicking and dragging the window's edges.
  

• If you are using a second monitor or a projector, the taskbar may be hidden on one of the screens. To fix this, press Windows + P on your keyboard and select PC screen only from the sidebar. This will make your primary screen the only one that displays your desktop.
  

Feel free to ask if you have any further concerns.
