task bar at bottom not all the way showing
system trey not showing all the way. I have a windows 10 desktop and the recommended resolution is being used but the system trey or task bar at the bottom is falling off the bottom so you can not see the entire task bar. If I select the next resolution down it shows up but my screen is cut short at the top. Is there a way to get this back to default settings or adjust the size? I have tried to grab the bar at the bottom and drag it up but it is not working?
What kind of Screen or Monitor do you have connected to the Windows 10 Desktop (make and model number)? Also what video card do you have(make and model number)? Are you using the correct Native resolution for your monitor?

Realize these numbers they provide are generic. So your monitor may require something different. If you provide information on your settings as to what you have now, what you've tried etc maybe we can figure out what is wrong. Maybe screenshots of what you see may also help.

This is an HP monitor and the resolution is 1920x1080. I found the button and will try that. It is an old monitor.
Taskbar works fine on that resolution. Try the adjustments I suggested.

I found the issue. McKnife was what got me to those settings. It was the properties and just maintain display scaling.

Thanks to all. I seem to recall I could assign points?
Look down the left side of your question and assign as you wish.
Great! Glad you got it taken care of. I was thinking the same thing that McKnife put out there...I just didn't lol. Good job McK.

I agree. You all helped as all this information is valuable.
Unlock the taskbar.
Right click, Settings,
Turn OFF Hide Taskbar.
Turn OFF Small Icons.
Now restart and test. You can always change settings once it is working to your satisfaction.
