    Remove the active application 'line' on the taskbar, it causes BURN IN on OLED monitors


    There are 100000 complaints online about this and MS must be aware. Even if hidden, the taskbar displays a thin white line over the current active apps. This line causes burn in on OLED monitors. There must be a way to disable the 'active app' line on the taskbar. If not MS MUST include the feature ASAP. There MUST be a way to completely go dark/black on a monitor/TV with Windows 10/11 so that there is no burn in on these monitors. I paid $3000 for my LG OLED and now have a ghost 'line' where my taskbar apps are.

    :)

  2. How to remove the line in taskbar under running applications?

    I'd like to remove the line displayed under running apps in the taskbar, this:

    Remove the active application 'line' on the taskbar, it causes BURN IN on OLED monitors [​IMG]


    For everyone who uses non-combined labeled apps this is super annoying, especially on dark theme.
    There was a long thread here but the solution presented only works for windows build 1609.
    Some also suggested to simply set up monitor to hide those 2-3 pixels, but that would be a problem for using certain apps.

    Is there a currently working solution to remove it? Or maybe a color code to make it darker?

    white line underneath taskbar

    ive recently got a oled tv as my monitor ,and due to the potential for burn in.
