Taskbar does not hide anymore

Solved
Hello everyone
first post on this beautiful forum ;-)

my taskbar is hiding automatically, and at some point, it refuses to come back ...
I have checked the "auto-hide..." option, but it stays open despite the fact that it no longer has focus.
I tried using TaskbarRepairToolPlus!.exe, but the issue is not listed.
my problem is that my taskbar is at the top (personal choice) and therefore it hides the close, minimize, etc. commands of applications running in full screen... not cool at all!

thanks in advance to anyone who can help me.

    3. Happy for you.
      I found the culprit: it was the Google Drive client. Since I stopped using it, I no longer have that issue.
    4. Just want to thank...it feels good to find a solution because I had moved my bar too and I couldn't understand anything...THAAAANK YOU ^^
    5. Wow, how had I not thought of that... Indeed, with this method, the taskbar regains its assigned behavior (in this case, to hide automatically)
      A big THANK YOU
