asked on

taskbar stays visible when too many programs/windows/tabs open

I set
hide taskbar windows 10
using control panel

usually works

but then if I have too many programs (firefox, chrome, skype, notepad)
and too many windows

then taskbar stays and does not hide


So then I need to close programs/windows

I hope I dont have to close all the programs/windows

I try one at a time then hope taskbar disappears

Is there an easier way

Like a shortcut to force hide taskbar
