Windows 10: Hidden taskbar still shows 2 pixel border

Hiding the taskbar in the settings still leaves a 2 pixel border. The taskbar goes down, but not 100%. This is annoying... I've tried some 3rd party tools to fix this, but none are ideal. There should be a way to allow the user to actually use the full screen... How?

Hi,

We suggest that you check if the folder is hidden by following these steps:

• In the search box on the taskbar, type folder, and then select
  Show hidden files and folders from the search results.
• Under Advanced settings, select Show hidden files, folders, and drives, and then select
  OK.

Let us know how it goes.

 

Independent taskbar and window border colours?


One of the things I find most annoying about Windows 7, being a long-time XP user, is the lack of independent colour settings for the various GUI elements, for example, the taskbar, active window title bar and active window border colours are not separately settable. I see no reason whatsoever why this has to be so - XP offered far, far more flexibility in this respect.

As far as I can see, we still have the same situation with Windows 10. It appears to be impossible to have the taskbar a different colour to the active window title bar and border. It is even impossible to get the taskbar to be a solid colour - it is always transparent. There is not even a Windows 7-like opacity control. A massive step backwards in user personalisation control.

And why doe the window border have to be so thin? I can hardly see it at all.

 

Snapping causes small borders around windows

This setting is already on.

> Method 2: Change registry values for border width.

This setting was set to -60, is now set to 0.

I don't really see a difference yet. At the very right edge of my screen I now see a 1 pixel gap where my wallpaper comes through, as well as between the taskbar (bottom) and only the right-snapped window. The left-snapped window takes all available space
to the last pixel, atm.

However, it's nearly impossible to reproduce on-demand. It's a tossup basically. Sometimes it'll be pixel precize, other times it leaves gaps of 1-4 pixels anywhere around the two windows.

Any other suggestions?
