Chrome covering auto-hiding taskbar

[EpsilonLima]

Hi All,

I use google chrome as my main browser, however I often experience an annoying issue where it covers the taskbar preventing it from being seen. I have my taskbar set to auto-hide (I think it looks neater) so in any other application I simply move the mouse to the bottom of the screen and the taskbar comes up, however chrome seems to go on-top of it.

This doesn't seem to happen all the time but I can't seem to narrow down a cause and it does occur multiple times each day. I've managed to work out (after much playing with it) that chrome seems to go on-top of the taskbar as it still opens up, just behind chrome so I can't click it.

Any potential resolutions to this issue would be much appreciated as this has annoyed me for ages!

Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing Google Chrome? Re-install your graphics drivers following this guide and lastly try and perform a system restore if the issue you've stated above came about after a mandatory windows update. you may also try a repair install instead of a system restore.
