Windows 10: Task Bar will not completely hide

I cannot seem to get the taskbar to completely hide. The very top of it will not go away. I have tried the following:

* Moving the task bar to another location left, right, etc.

* Checking to see if an app needed my attention - doing what the app wanted then restarting

* Restarting Windows Explorer in the Task Manager

*Changing almost every setting in the task bar control panel

*Updating the graphics card driver


I don't know what changed, but this is a pretty new laptop and my first gaming PC. This issue is really annoying since I feel that I spent enough money for this computer, it should not have issues like this that are not easily fixed.


I really hope someone can help me fix this. Thank you in advance!
