Windows 10: Taskbar display issues on Windows 10

I use a dual monitor display connected to my laptop on a docking station. On one monitor, the taskbar displays normally, but on my primary monitor, it displays more expanded. I've tried restarting and messing with taskbar settings, but I don't know how to resolve it.
