Windows 10: Taskbar is not hiding when I play in borderless window format

Why isn’t a taskbar hiding when I play some video games in borderless format? I tried to activate auto hide feature, but it appears again when I click on the bottom part of the screen.


Thank you in advance.

Taskbar not hiding in borderless games

When i play some videogame in borderless window format, the taskbar don't hide and i can click on it, if i activate the autohide option it will popup when i tuch the bottom part of the screen with the cursor.

Before the last update, it have't done this not one time, i noticed this on League of Legends and Fortnite but i don't want to play with the fullscreen option because it will be slow when i do Alt+Tab during the game.

I hope to solve this problem quickly, so i can come back playing with my friends.

Hi,



Did you try the “Auto-hide the taskbar” option from Taskbar properties?



If you have not tried it, I would suggest you to follow these steps and auto-hide the taskbar:

• Right click on Taskbar.
• Click on Properties
• Check the box Auto-hide the taskbar.
• Click on OK.

Hope this information helps.
