  1. Preventing the taskbar from popping up automatically


    Hi, I set my taskbar to automatically hide because I think it takes up too much space by default. The main problem is that whenever anything updates in one of the applications I have open, the taskbar won't go back down and stays up until I've found the window that's causing this. How do I stop the taskbar from popping up whenever something updates in a window I have open?

    :)

  2. Search and taskbar keeps popping up

    Hi Sazmo,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    Sorry for the inconvenience caused.



    Are you referring to taskbar preview window pop-ups?



    If yes, there is no option to disable the taskbar window pop-ups when you hover the mouse, this is by design.

    However you may Auto-hide taskbar by following the below steps and check if it helps.


    • Right click on the taskbar and select properties.

    • In the Taskbar tab, Place a tick mark for Auto-hide the taskbar.
    You may provide your suggestions in the feedback app.

    It will be directly referred by our developer’s team for further improvement.

    Follow the steps:

    • Go to Start, enter the phrase Windows Feedback, and then select Windows Feedback.
    • See if someone else has given similar feedback by entering the topic, such as Microsoft Music.
    • If you find similar feedback, select it, add any details, and then select Me too.
    • To narrow your search to a specific category, pick the category that most closely matches your feedback (so it gets to the right people quickly). For example, for feedback about the Music app, select Apps > Music.
    • If you don’t find any similar feedback, select New Feedback, and choose a topic from Select a category and then select a subcategory.
    • Enter your feedback (the more details the better!), add a screenshot if you can, and you're done.

    Hope the information helps. Do reply if you need further assistance.

    Hi Roger,

    Thank you for sharing this to the Microsoft Community. We suggest that you follow these steps for possible solution:

    • Right-click on an empty area of the taskbar. If in tablet mode, hold your finger on the taskbar.
    • Click on Settings.
    • Toggle Automatically hide the taskbar in desktop mode to on. You can also do the same for tablet mode.

    In addition to that, you can follow the reply of johnhart061 on this

    Let us know how it goes.
