The title refers to a situation where installing the newest Nvidia drivers caused unexpected changes in Windows behavior. Specifically, full-screen browsing often leads to the task bar vanishing, an issue that didn’t occur before the update. I’m wondering why this happens—since it’s happening across multiple browsers and even other programs like Steam, it likely points to a Windows-level change rather than a browser-specific problem.

It refers to opening the browser in full screen, which often removes the taskbar. Since you're not using the "11" option, the behavior should be similar regardless of whether you enable or disable it.

It's not a complete full-screen experience because the top section of the browser remains visible, but the usual task bar area at the bottom is missing.

ROFL, you want to adjust the display again? Just make the window fill the entire screen. Click the top bar and drag it up to the top edge. Once full screen is active, exit the browser via File then Exit in the upper left corner. This will remember the new setting for future use.

Yes, I can verify if your Task Bar is configured to auto-hide.

Nope. What file does exit command handle? I move it to the edge of my screen but I only see this: When I switch to fullscreen from there, it takes me back to square one with a fullscreen browser and no taskbar.

I didn't mean corner, I meant top. Click the middle of the top bar and drag it up to the edge. It will switch to full screen. Or tap the square next to X in the upper right. Are you sure you want this?

Adjust the window size to make it larger and keep the task bar at the bottom. Ensure it stays open without fullscreen mode when you drag it up. The task bar should remain visible after releasing the mouse, just like the square next to the quit option.

It seems Win 11 behaves differently from Windows 10. Pressing the square button usually opens the fullscreen mode. Are there any software tools available to manage your display settings or separate monitors?

Pressing the square button actually turns everything into fullscreen, not just hiding the task bar. I have two monitors and don’t use any software to separate them. It seems this issue isn’t limited to browsers—it also affects programs like Steam. So it’s not just a browser problem anymore.
