Task bar in windowed fullscreen

I play in windowed fullscreen mode. Today all of a sudden, the task bar on Windows 10 keeps showing when I'm ingame (its half-transparent but I can't see skill icons and exp bar clearly). I didn't have this problem yesterday and I don't know what caused it today. Any suggestions?

Same thing happened to me today. It may have happened other day, but I'm just noticing it.

Updated Win10
POE in windowed full screen

It makes the game annoying AF for an AuraMancer and anyone trying to run DOWN so they don't get one shot.

It just happened to me today and nothing seems to fix it. Can someone direct me to the forum where GGG explains what is goign on?

(Edit)
Literally minutes after I posted, I found a solution. Just restart Windows Explorer in the task manager. (Crtl+Alt+Delete brings up the selection window to bring up task manager, or you can use Ctrl+Shift+Esc.)

This does not seem to be a GGG problem.

@ClickerPro used this method and it works a charm thank you.


Even if you dont have windows explorer open. Open it and then rightclick > restart then you can close it afterwards
