Taskbar not showing up

I use the auto-hide feature for the taskbar. To reveal the taskbar I drag my mouse to the bottom of the screen. But in windows 11 sometimes the taskbar doesn't show no matter how many times I drag the mouse down. I have to use the windows key to reveal the taskbar and then the problem is fixed until it happens another time. I have been using the auto-hide feature for years in windows 10. So not using the auto-hide taskbar is not an option for me.

    I am experiencing a similar issue. I have just upgraded to Windows 11 Pro from Windows 10 Pro. I have three monitors with extended desktop enabled. I have the taskbar set to display on all monitors, and it seems to function as expected. When I activate auto-hide, the taskbar behaves as it had on Windows 10 on the primary display (i.e. the taskbar recedes and then returns when I hover the mouse at the bottom of the screen). However, the taskbar fails to appear when I hover the mouse at the bottom of the screen on either of the other two monitors. I am watching this space. Let me know if this needs to be posted as a new discussion.

    Hello
    I understand that I am also hiding the taskbar !
    Please write about it in the feedback center to report directly to the development team.
