    Taskbar double the normal height after adding 4k tv as monitor?


    So I recently added a 4k tv as a third monitor to my system. Since then, my taskbar has been changed to double its normal height. The first and second monitors are 1920x1080 and the third(tv) is 4096x2160. The taskbar on the second monitor is fine but on the first and third monitors it is double height. How do I fix this? I've tried dragging the top of the taskbar down but that didn't do anything.

    Double height on taskbar resets on every reboot

    I like to have my taskbar on double height and auto-hiding.

    But after every reboot, it gets set back to single height.

    Locking the taskbar in the registry doesn't help.

    I have scanned my current version for corrupted files and found none.

    In the past, it was never a problem but ever since the creators update it is hell.

    Does anybody have a real solution for this?

    Loses double height taskbar on logoff/reboot


    As soon as I log off or reboot the VM W10 loses the double height taskbar. Is there a trick? I tried both small and normal taskbar icons. Also I have that jazz in the lower right corner of the desktop eval version etc. even though it says Windows Is Activated.

    It's English W10 x86

    I'm using latest VMPlayer.
    Any hints?

    Taskbar double the normal height after adding 4k tv as monitor?

    Windows wont display 4k and HDR simultaneously.

    I recently got a 4k HDR tv (Samsung UE43NU7100). I connect my PC with a normal HD monitor and the 4k HDR tv. When turning on HDR on my tv the resolution of the 4k tv (3840x2160) gets set back to normal HD (1920x1080) in windows settings. Windows is completely
    updated, my AMD Radeon R9 390 8gb graphics card is up to date and supports and displays in 4k when HDR is off. My Xbox one X displays both 4k and HDR perfectly simultaneously. I use a high speed HDMI 2.0 cable. I have no idea why my pc does this and cant find
    anything about windows not being able to do 4k and HDR at the same time. It also doesn't work if I only connect the tv instead of the monitor and tv. Any suggestion?
