Win 11 pro . Browsers , Explorer covers up taskbar
Greatings , recently around October 2024 , not sure after what update .
The browsers (all of them ) and Explorer on start up , covered the taskbar EVERY time. so I reverted back to a restore point . Reverting was a story all of it's own , so that after 2 going back to a restore point Win 11 seems to have destroyed ? those restore points. but that's not why I am here
After doing these restores , I ended up loosing most of the programs that were installed. I have backups on other drives but did not use them. As usual I lost my cool and just wiped out the ssd and re-installed Win 11 pro 22h2 iso . I had modified this ISO 2 years earlier ( ntlite licensed to Remove Onedrive )and had successfully installed it on other machines . I will spare you my rant on " how much I hate Onedrive and Microsoft's push to forces us all into Onedrive paid subscriptions " .
I re installed it on my machine as I;ve done before in 2022 with regular updates until Oct 24, this time the issue was present from the gitt go, Edge did it , Explorer did it , Firefox did it . since it's fresh install I checked the auto hide task bar , it was off , checked the resolution , at default , checked drivers it was ok , some of the more special Asus drivers for OTHER thins were not correct , especially the TPlink Bluetooth.
I ran the latest Asus Chipset driver package for the Asus Tuf x670e wifi plus Motherboard . All issues corrected except for Tplink that I did not use, ( I tried it as a experiment a year ago and never unplugged it ) I removed that plug in USB unit .
I have searched the web for people with this issue and not found ONE response on this . AAMOF all I find is the opposite how to cover the Taskbar or use f11.
So I am turning to you the community ( and pray for the bits God that people with understand my complain and myabe have NEW suggestions that I have not found so far ) my background is extensive going back to the Sinclair home built units . so I'd like to think , I know what I am doing 🤣.
to mitigate this issue for now, I have modified the size of the apps in question by hand to a size less the taskbar region
Tank you all
Best Regards
Roman
