Windows 7 – Taskbar is Always On Top

Windows 7 Taskbar Not Always On Top

Odd thing happened today. Noticed that the Status Bar of maximized applications were underneath the TaskBar in Windows 7. Obviously annoying and I have no idea what caused this behavior.

After tooling around awhile, I unchecked the ‘Use small icons’ checkbox and clicked the ‘Apply’ button. This fixed the issue, and when I went back and re-checked the ‘Use small icons’ checkbox again it stayed fixed.

Go figure.

The preceeding post was lifted from http://www.davestone.net/blog/post/Windows-7-Taskbar-Not-Always-On-Top.aspx.  I lifted it because I could not register at davestone.net to tell them I was appreciative.

Works initially.  I haven’t been able to run all the tests.  I don’t game.  At least when I open a window and it is behind the taskbar I can click it and it will take the focus.
