its already like that

that's not the problem trust me

If you right click on the task bar down at the bottom of the menu there is an option to lock the taskbar uncheck that and you can move the taskbar where ever you want. If you want it to auto hide you’ll have to go into the taskbar settings (also in that menu) and then enable the Automatically hide the taskbar in desktop mode.

If you have windows 10 this is a bug that happens from time to time. Close everything that is running other than gmod until it works. For me the applications that cause this tend to be Origin, Discord, Teamspeak & Skype.

All of these methods are shit, just pin to taskbar or unpin and it should fix it

but autohide bugs out sometimes and its really shit when you try to do certain stuff and you have to pin to taskbar once in like 4 months

Go into task manager and find windows explorer, Click it, and then click restart, that should work 100%
EDIT:

Thanks for he help everyone, I’ll try these methods when I’m back on it tomorrow

This is the problem btw

Apps such as discord can be closed but they will still continue running in the background which wont affect your taskbar

Yeah, last time I had this problem that worked but tried it this time and it didn’t work, I’ll try again tomorrow

I usually right click the taskbar and then tab back into the game and it goes.

I did mate, that’s where I got the picture from, the old thread

This happens to me a lot, I either just deal with it or I just mess around with it until it goes away.

All right, I've tried all these methods and none of them working...
