How to Hide the Taskbar on Windows 10

Microsoft Windows Logo

The Windows taskbar is great for quickly accessing frequently used applications on your computer. However, some users prefer to hide it in order to save screen space. Here's how to hide the taskbar on Windows 10.

Automatically Hide the Taskbar in Settings

To automatically hide your taskbar, right-click anywhere on your PC's desktop and select "Personalize" from the pop-up menu.

Regardless of which method you choose, you'll now be in the Taskbar Settings menu. From here, toggle the slider to "On" under "Automatically Hide The Taskbar In Desktop Mode." If your PC is able to switch over to tablet mode, you can hide the taskbar by toggling that option to "On," as well.

Your taskbar will now automatically hide. This means that, unless you get a notification from an app in the taskbar or you hover your mouse over where the taskbar should be, it won't show up.
