Windows 10: Windows 10 Multiple displays task bar

Hi


On my system I run windows 10 on a desktop and have 3 Displays. Can I have 2 of the displays running the task bar and disable it on the 3rd display?


Thanks

Windows 10 Defender - How to make it default to task bar?

Using Windows 10 and currently I am using Defender for anti virus. For whatever reason Windows Defender does not show up in the task bar unless I search for the program or right click and scan a file/folder. Is there a way to force Defender to show up in the task bar at start up?

 

Task bar does not respond when multiple windows are displayed as combined

Whenever I have just a single instance of a program displaying in my task bar I experience no problems when I click it: it minimizes, it maximizes, it works as expect.

Whenever I have multiple instances of the same program running (for instance, two seperate Edge windows open at once) and they are displayed as combined, when I click the task bar the preview for each will pop up and then immediately minimize. When I hover
over the task bar the previews will display, but as soon as I click one they disappear and nothing happens. Essentially, whenever I have programs stacked/combined in the task bar, I cannot select any open windows. I Can only switch between them by using alt-tab.

In in all other ways the task bar performs normally; all buttons respond so long as there is just a single instance displayed in the task bar and they are not combined.

This is is a brand new computer, so this wasn't a Windows upgrade. I've downloaded all systems updates from Microsoft and the computer manufacturer. I have also tried restoring my system several times and nothing works: each time I open multiple windows
of the same program the task bar becomes useless to switch between them.

Any suggestions or insights are greatly appreciated.
