Windows 10: Youtube fullscreen shows taskbar (Chrome)

Hi,

Today i started having a weird issue with fullscreen on Youtube.

I have Youtube on my left monitor and twitter on my right monitor.

When I click fullscreen on the youtube video i get one of two problems.

I either get:

1. It doesn't go fullscreen at all and has the topbar and taskbar are showing (The red bit is my bookmarks which I have covered up).





2. It does go fullscreen but as soon as I click on my other monitor the taskbar shows.





Any help?

Thanks.

:)

 

Windows 10 Taskbar appear in fullscreen video

I found another workaround:

If you pin\unpin something to the taskbar it starts working like expected again not showing in fullscreen mode (youtube, videoplayers, games etc.)

 

Taskbar isnt hiding

The windows 10 taskbar wont (Frustratingly) hide when I do anything fullscreen related. For example, In youtube it goes fullscreen, but the taskbar wont hide. Same thing with games or anything fullscreen related. one example of "Anything fullscreen related"
is a common steam game : Unturned. the taskbar wont hide during fullscreen mode. Also, Please do not suggest auto-hide. auto-hide is as cancerous as the problem itself, In my opinion.

 

This is driving me mad.

 

Ok so this must be a Chrome problem and not something that i can fix then *Sad

 

All my Chromium based browsers have inverted text! *Confused

 

okey considering this was only 3 days ago and is around the same time i started experiencing this problem.. i to am frustrated by it!

the address bar along with tabs and my taskbar remain on screen while fullscreening a video on any website.. this must be a recent issue cause its a pain in the ass!

 

The issue has been logged with Google: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium...0OS%20Modified

 

Same problem here boys, hope they will fix it asap.

 

For now just use F11 to fullscreen your browser and it'll work fine, little annoying but it gets you true fullscreen video at least.

 

That's a Chrome issue, it's absolutely driving me nuts too. They said it's fixed in future versions but it's not fixed for me??

Anyone news on this? By the way, I'm also annoyed by the 1 pixel line on the bottom which supposedly is a Windows thing and is intended *Sad

 

Hi, guys. Try this:

1) Go to your desktop and right click on the Chrome icon

2) Select properties

3) Select the tab labeled "compatibility" from the top of the menu

4) Check the box next to the option that says "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings"

5) Select "apply" and you're all set!

 

It didn't work. The taskbar is still over a fullscreen Chrome window.

 

This is embarrassing guys, what the heck is this already?

 

I had this problem 3 weeks ago. I fixed it unchecking the "Lock the taskbar" box in the taskbar properties.





Hope this helps.
