Task bar on 2nd screen doesn't rise up

Question

Hello,&nbsp;I've upgraded to Windows 11 yesterday, and I have an annoying behavior:My taskbar is configured to hide automatically, and it behaves properly on my main monitor.But on my 2nd monitor, my taskbar doesn't rise when I move the mouse to the bottom, unless I right click - which also obviously brings up the context menu.&nbsp;This appears to be a bug. I tried playing with the taskbar settings, but nothing had a different effect.&nbsp;Does anyone else experience this?

It is checked.The task bar does pop up if I right-click. But that is not the correct behavior.

Mousefluff&nbsp;Thanks, but it didn't really help. I doubt it has something to do with these errors, but maybe...
