The only ways to solve this are not hiding the taskbar, or manually resizing the window.

Rather annoying.

I know this is dead by now, but for anyone who googles this, there's a few white dots in the bottom right corner, click those to unhide the taskbar

Why do you necro a thread by quoting the wrong post? It was NOT a problem for me, the other Ppl in this thread suffered the issue.
Please don't necro, especially not on the Bug Reports forum. This forum is needed for the DEVs to work on CURENT issues

It /is/ still a current issue tho, since it's still happening.

If you Faroese Coffee dug up this thread because you still suffer the issue, that would be OK. But ToP_NoTcH did and he did/does not suffer the issue and nor did/do i (just checked to be sure i don't) being the person quoted by ToP_NoTcH.

It's like that 10 year old bug when you closed Steam in full screen and you start it again it will open normaly. You will have to maximize it again.

The issue for me recently was the new update Windows gave me. I had to restore and update again.
