Problems with Hiding the Task Bar

I have a problem with the taskbar not hiding - I have checked the settings but when I put the mouse down the screen bottom which causes the taskbar to rise it then stays in the risen position permanently - This often hides text input boxes in chat boxes which are often locked in a particular screen position and can't be moved

    Hi, what version of Windows are you writing about?
    Windows10 = you can change the location of the taskbar to the top of the screen or vertically
    Windows11 is without this feature - 

    Windows11 is without this feature - I rate it as a step backwards of users, and your example confirms this, of course you are right that you see a problem in this (this prevents proper writing on the website and is clearly annoying.

    Thank you for your post

      I am using Win 11 Pro - I have now solved the problem there is an app called Taskbar 11 that allows Win 11 users to put the taskbar at the top or bottom of the screen (plus a few other tweaks) this allows me to move it out of the way and now right clicking on the screen hides it - result!
