Windows 10 Taskbar sometimes on top of full-screen applications

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

I suggest you to change the Screen Resolution and check if this helps. Follow the steps below to do the same:

• Press ‘Windows ’ key on the keyboard.
• In the search box, type Settings
  
• SelectSystem > Display > Advanced display settings.
• Under Resolution, select a new value. We suggest you stick with the resolution marked
  "(Recommended)”.

Also try locking and then unlocking the Taskbar and check if this helps. Follow the steps below:

• Right-click an empty space on the taskbar.
• If Lock the Taskbar has a check mark next to it, the taskbar is locked.
  
• If it does not have a check mark, click Lock the Taskbar.

Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.

 

Excel window covers the Windows taskbar

Thank you for your suggestion.

I am using Microsoft Excel for Office 365 MSO (16.0.11328.20492) 64-bit.

In Excel Options, under Advanced, I looked under the "Display" section, as well throughout, but could not find the option for "Show all windows in the taskbar".

The problem is, that is not the solution to the problem I am looking at. I already have all windows displayed/listed in the taskbar.

The problem is that the Excel window itself can be dragged from its top bar all the way to the bottom of my Windows screen (as far I like, but I usually am showing the top of the Excel window so I can view other windows above Excel), and will either cross
(cover) the Windows taskbar, or move underneath the Windows taskbar. I am trying to keep the Excel window under the Windows taskbar - otherwise I lose visibility of all my other program icons on the Windows taskbar.

Thank you.

 

Search on Taskbar covers up icons

Hi,

We appreciate you for being a part of Windows 10.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you.

Please be informed that there is no way to shift the icons on the taskbar to right. It is per the system design. As you do not want to use the search icon, perform the below steps as a work around and check if it helps.

• 
  Right click on the empty area on the taskbar, click on
  Properties.
  
• 
  Click on Taskbar tab, check the box
  Use small taskbar buttons.
  
• 
  Select Always combine, hide labels from the
  Taskbar buttons: drop down menu.
  
• 
  Click on Apply button and click on
  OK button.
  

This will help you to certain extent as the search bar will not cover the all icons on the taskbar.

I hope the above information helps. Kindly let us know if you need any further assistance with Windows. We are glad to assist you.

Thank you.
