    Some issues with minimizing and maximizing games

    Im trying the focus assist option right now, i will get back with the results.

    Alright, so turning focus assist off seems to have reduced the time it takes for my games to minimize and maximize, but i still get the annoying messagebox in the top left corner of the screen. I would also like if all my games would minimize and maximize instantly, but its a step in the right direction.

    Also, my games are running in exclusive fullscreen mode.

  3. Maximizing and Youtube

    So I like to have my browser screen fully maximized, so I'll click the maximize button like everyone else. But I then go to watch a video on YouTube, and ill play it in full screen. Then whenever I close the video from full screen the browser window will
    not be maximized forcing me to maximize it again. And since I watch a lot of YouTube this gets really annoying and tedious really quickly. So my question is how do I stop/fix Microsoft Edge from continually un-maximizing my window?

    Minimize, Maximize and Restore taskbar showing on the top of the screen in Windosw 10.

    Hello Valerie,



    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. We regret the inconvenience caused and will assist you in resolving the issue.



    Before assisting further, I would like to ask you few questions:


    • Are you taking about the taskbar which is shifted to top of the screen?

    • Does the “white bar” show up when you hover your mouse over to the top of the screen?


    If you are referring to the taskbar, whose location is now changed to top of the screen, it is because of the changed taskbar settings in the PC.



    Method 1: I suggest you to follow the steps below to change the taskbar settings and check if the issue is resolved.




    • Hover the mouse to the location of the “white bar”, right-click and select
      Properties.

    • From the window, select Bottom under
      Taskbar location on screen option.

    • Click on Apply and OK
      to check if the changes are effective.


    Method 2: If the issue persist, I suggest you to run
    System Maintenance troubleshooter and check if the issue persist.



    System Maintenance troubleshooter will find and clean up unused files and shortcuts present on the system, and perform maintenance tasks which will enhance the performance of the PC.




    • Press Windows logo key on the keyboard, type
      Troubleshooting and select the top most search result.

    • Select View all from the left side panel of the window.

    • Select System Maintenance from the listed options, click on
      Advanced option and check Apply repairs automatically
      option.

    • Follow the on screen instructions.

    • Close the window after the troubleshooting is complete and check if the changes are effective.


    Write to us with the answers to the above questions and the status of the issue on the same post for further assistance. Your reply is most important for us to ensure we assist you accordingly.



    Thank you.
