auto-hide taskbar not working in windows 10

Task bar will not auto-hide and auto-hide is selected in its ‘Properties’?
If you click the ‘show hidden icons’, allow it to pop-up then move your cursor away from the pop-up, the show hidden (SH) will, in a couple seconds, auto hide however the task bar will not auto hide until you re-select the (SH) then move the
mouse away from the (SH) click the mouse to dismiss the (SH) then the taskbar will auto-hide again. If one of the hidden icons has a message for you, that message has to be satisfied prior to the taskbar returning to its hidden state.

 

Taskbar hidden behind windows

There's an issue with the taskbar's auto-hide feature. Whenever I have a window open over where it pops up, it can't open because the window covers it. When I minimize the window and click the taskbar, it works, but the moment I click the window again
the taskbar disappears behind it.

 

If memory serves.....
When you have an app on the screen, and it's maximized, that means it's taking up the ENTIRE SCREEN. You can't click on the taskbar that's not there.
Leave your taskbar showing all the time and you won't have the problem. Eh?

*Cool

 

If you have it set to auto-hide it should pop-up when you move the cursor to the bottom of the screen. In 10130 auto-hide is not working correctly.

 

well it is only happening for chrome now its really annoying though any fixes for chrome

 

Just updated to latest build and the problem is fixed *Biggrin

 

well the update i got was 10130 xD and i have to constantly restart the explorer To fix it xD

 

It's not fixed in 10134 either. It works fine until I left click the start button, that's when it gets stuck in the open position, and like you, I have to restart explorer to get it fixed. If I run a program from the task bar it works, if I right click the start button it works, if I click on any item on the bottom right of the task bar it works. It only freezes open after left clicking start. We'll see what happens with the next build.

 

Thanks. This was driving me nuts. I went into Task Manager and did a restart on File Explorer and my Taskbar now autohides!
