Youtube fullscreen shows taskbar (Chrome)

But as I remember it, its not just the taskbar. Its the website border as well obstructing during the glitch.

right click on your browser (not on your toolbar) and go to properties then compatibility and check the box disable screen changing by high DPI (or something like that) and everything should be fine and dandy

Worked for me.

Thank you. And resetting the browser to default helped me and on another computer I tried as you said that saved me from resetting again. Because I am lazy to activate all the plugins again and again

For now just use F11 to fullscreen your browser and it'll work fine, little annoying but it gets you true fullscreen video at least.

That doesn't work either. Its not just Youtube that does this on. I play World of Warcraft and many other fullscreen games, and the toolbar is showing up over all of them. Its a huge pain!

Hi guys, this is an EASY FIX. Here's what you do:

1.) Open Task Manager (Press CTRL+ALT+DELETE at the same time)
2.) Right click of the file named "Windows Explorer"
3.) Click "restart"
4.) Enjoy the taskbar no longer impeding on your full screen!

Your Welcome.

Hi,

Today i started having a weird issue with fullscreen on Youtube.

I have Youtube on my left monitor and twitter on my right monitor.

When I click fullscreen on the youtube video i get one of two problems.

I either get:

1. It doesn't go fullscreen at all and has the topbar and taskbar are showing (The red bit is my bookmarks which I have covered up).



2. It does go fullscreen but as soon as I click on my other monitor the taskbar shows.



Any help?

Thanks.

This is driving me mad.

I fixed this problem just now by going to setting then typing in the search bar Taskbar settings and then look for use peek to preview and just uncheck it and done and if it happens again then just repeat this again.

I get this randomly when i'm on Chrome Youtube. All i do is if there is a "windows live" icon in the taskbar, (laptop icon) simply right click and choose close window. This then allows the taskbar to disappear! Hope this helps :)

So... i have a laptop and a Razer Blackwidow Stealth 2016 keyboard when ever I take out the keyboard the problem is fixed so... I have to use my laptop's crappy keyboard when watching youtube
