Taskbar Inaccessible when Teams Preview windows is maximised.
Hello all,
Bit of a weird issue that we are experiencing when previewing the new Teams client - when the window is full screened, we cannot access the taskbar when it is configured to auto-hide.
Pressing the start button pops the taskbar up but moving my cursor to the bottom of the application doesn't do anything.
Does anyone else have this issue?
This issue is also apparent in the Windows Terminal Preview.
I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing an issue with the new Teams client and the Windows Terminal Preview. While I don't have real-time access to current bug reports or user experiences, I can offer some general suggestions that might help address the problem:
Check for Updates: Make sure that you're using the latest versions of the Teams client and Windows Terminal Preview. Software updates often include bug fixes that could resolve the issue you're facing.
Report the Issue: If you haven't already, consider reporting the problem to Microsoft's support or feedback channels. They have dedicated teams that can investigate and address such issues more effectively.
Temporary Workaround: In the meantime, you might consider temporarily disabling the auto-hide feature of the taskbar. Right-click on the taskbar, select "Taskbar settings," and toggle off the "Automatically hide the taskbar in desktop mode" option. This should prevent the taskbar from disappearing and allow you to access it within the full-screened applications.
Seek Community Support: Look for online forums, social media groups, or Microsoft community forums where other users may have encountered similar issues. Engaging with the community can provide insights, workarounds, or confirmation of the problem.
Remember, these are general suggestions, and the specific solution to your issue may vary depending on the actual cause of the problem. Contacting Microsoft support or waiting for software updates are usually the most reliable ways to address software-related issues.
hamzakhandia I am having this issue on both Windows 10 and Window 11...
- That's really helpful to know. At this point I thought it was only me and some others in our office who were experiencing it.
It seems to be present on apps using the new design language such as Windows Terminal Preview, Outlook Preview and of course Teams Preview.
