Default Can't get rid of the Windows taskbar, even in fullscreen

Here's an image depicting my frustrating situation.

So how do I get rid of the taskbar while staying in fullscreen mode? It also stays visible in windowed mode. It doesn't really seem like there an option to overlay my client against my taskbar. This issue only started happening today, clear out of nowhere. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I have the same issue lol. Windows 10 just sucks. I put my taskbar on a different monitor. That was my bootleg solution.

Interesting. Mine does that when I go FS (also w10) but it goes away as soon as I click on anything inside the EQ window. One annoying thing, since my desktop is 4k and I run EQ at a much lower resolution, is I have to click inside the smaller "box" that EQ is taking up on the desktop, even though it's full screen. I've learned to just click in the upper left hand corner area and that seems to work each time to "reset" it to being actually full screen.

I get this problem sometimes with certain other programs running while in windowed mode. To fix I have to alt tab the other program then minimize it. Could try that.

Open up your task manager and scroll down until you find windows explorer. Right click and try restarting windows explorer and see what happens.
