Windows 10: Multiple taskbars

Hi all! Hope you are all doing alright considering the crisis we have on our hands.


Short question:

Is there any way to have my windows 10 taskbar running accross two extended displays but not appearing on a third.


If anyone has any suggestions for software that can do this for me like ultra mon I would greatly appreciate it!



If you want the whole story:

I have a multiple triple monitor setup for my computer and am using amd eyefinity to make them act like a single 5750x1080 monitor. I dont like having the taskbar on any of the three or all of them so I was going to grab two old laptops, install space desk and put them just below and use them as a massive taskbar. I was going to create another eyefinity display group but I have found out that it is only possible to do one eyefinity display group per graphics card. Is there any way to have my windows 10 taskbar running accross both laptop displays but not appear on the monitors in my triple setup?




Thank you and have a good day/night.

:)
