How do I make my taskbar stay UP!!! I hate the bouncing up and down and I can't see the date in the right hand side unless it is up

To make your taskbar stay visible and prevent it from auto-hiding in Windows 11, you can adjust the settings as follows:

1. Right-click on the taskbar and select Taskbar settings.
2. In the settings window, look for the option labeled Automatically hide the taskbar. Make sure this option is turned off. This will keep the taskbar visible at all times.
3. If you want to adjust the size of the taskbar icons, you can also find the option for Taskbar behaviors and look for settings related to icon size.

After making these changes, your taskbar should remain visible, and you should be able to see the date without any issues. If you continue to experience problems, consider checking for updates or troubleshooting your display settings.

• Configure the Windows taskbar (windows-11)
• Personalization - Taskbar - Autohide

If you have ensured the 'Hide the Taskbar' setting is disabled, most likely there is some corruption in Windows 11 causing the problem.

Open the Settings App, go to System - Recovery.

Click the 'Reinstall Now' button in the 'Fix problems with Windows Updates' section, then wait for that process to complete, this process will not affect your files, settings or installed apps.
