    Taskbar location not saving on Multi-monitor setup.


    Ever since upgrading to Windows 10, the most annoying thing, even more annoying then BSOD's once every other day, is the fact that my Taskbar doesn't stay where I place it.

    I have dual monitors and have always placed the taskbar on the right side of the secondary display. Whenever I sign back in after being idle the taskbar will move to the other monitor, which means I have to unlock, move, resize and relock it EVERYTIME I unlock the computer.

    I figure I'd wait for the Windows 10 Anniversary Update, which has helped a lot with the crashes, I haven't had one in a week.

    But still my taskbar is always in the wrong spot.

    :)

  2. After Win10 Creators Update: the Task Bar has 100%-transparent instead of 100%-black background

    I have the exact same problem, running on three monitors.

    The taskbar on the primary is fine, the others are transparent. I've also seen the primary monitor taskbar be transparent.

    I don't think it's related to settings, it's just a bug, possibly related to DPI scaling on multi-monitor setups.

    I installed Creators Update manually because of the scaling improvements, everything is fine except for this, hope it will be fixed soon.
