Windows 10: Taskbar STILL not always on top!

This is an issue that has bugged me for years. Windows still cover autohidden taskbar!

When the taskbar is hidden, and any window is maximized or snapped, the mouse is sometimes unable to trigger the taskbar. I have to shrink the window before the mouse can touch the taskbar.

Has anyone solved this?

Taskbar Always on Top

Until yesterday I had my Taskbar set to be always on top and to hide when the cursor is not over it, this makes it so I can blow the web browser up to 125% and the bar won't get in the way of the web page and everything looks nicer. If I wanted to switch
apps on the taskbar, because it was always on top, all I had to do was move the cursor down and up it pops ready for me to select an app. Yesterday I thought I wasn't doing things properly when I had the web browser maxed and I couldn't pull up the taskbar,
but I confirmed it today, the always on top option has been removed from the taskbar options and if any window, not even full screen, but a window that is too far down will prevent the taskbar from being brought up, and if it does come up for some reason it
is always behind the windowed application, obscuring which apps are where on the taskbar.

Please bring the taskbar always on top option back.

Hi Michael,

One of the possible reasons why your taskbar is missing is due to outdated profile or operating system. To help you with your concern regarding the missing taskbar, we recommend performing the troubleshooting steps found on this

Let us know how that turned out for you.

 

You could try to put desktopcoral over the taskbar. Not 100% sure it will work though

 

Thanks for the reply. I'm trying to avoid third party apps whenever possible. This problem has been around for years, I was just hoping that it would finally get fixed.
