Autohide taskbar not working

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

You may check increasing the size of the Taskbar by dragging it little bit upwards. Because sometimes, if the size of the Taskbar is small system won’t make changes.

I would suggest you to create a new User Account and check if that issues occurs in other account.

You can follow below steps to create new User Account.

• Go to Settings.
• Choose Accounts and then select Other User Accounts towards the left.
• Select Add an Account.
• Enter a user name and hit Next.
• Click on Finish.

Hope this information is helpful, if not let us know with the updated status and we will be happy to assist you further.

Thanks.

 

How do I add a shortcut to the Taskbar on Windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for posting your concern on Microsoft Community.

As per the issue description you are unable to add a shortcut to the taskbar in Windows 10. You are right that there is no option to pin the shortcut to the taskbar. However, you should be able to drag and drop the shortcut to the taskbar. If you are unable
to do that try the steps provided below and see if it helps you to fix the issue.

• Open the network connection page by clicking on the shortcut.
• Once that page is open, you could see the same in the taskbar.
• Now, right click on the icon of network connection in the taskbar which is representing your shortcut.
• Select the option pin to the taskbar.
• Now the shortcut will be pinned to the taskbar.

Hope this would help. If issue still persists post back with current status of your computer and result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to assist you.

Regards,
