    Hiding the taskbar w/o full version of W10?


    Hello! So I just got Windows 10 from Bootcamp but I don't have the full version so I cannot customize. Any way to hide the taskbar?

    Welcome to TenForums @Joshie

    If you have installed Windows 10 in Bootcamp it should be the full version, but until it is activated various personalization options are disabled. It is a violation of the EULA to continue to use an unactivated Windows 10, even in Bootcamp. To comply with the EULA and activate your Windows 10 you should buy a licence for Windows 10.

    In the mean time, you may be able to use Option Two in this tutorial to set the Taskbar to auto-hide by editing the registry.

    When I went to the Registry Editor, it then tells me to "In Registry Editor, navigate to the location below.
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\StuckRects2
    3. In the right pane of StruckRects2, double click or tap on the Settings to modify it."

    But that's not what I see. I don't see StruckRects. I only see this a folder that says control panel that contains "REG_Binary" and it doesn't show everything
