Regarding the Taskbar Behavior Differences Between StartAllBack 3.7.X and 3.8+

[clarkh]

Hello, I’m a paid user of StartAllBack. Due to a bug, I’ve been stuck on version 3.7.X and unable to upgrade. I’m not sure what the issue is.

The specific behavior is as follows:
When using version 3.7.X, with the settings configured as shown in the screenshot, everything works normally. When a window is maximized, it does not occupy the area where the taskbar is located. Notice the file manager in the screenshot—the bottom status bar is displayed at its full and correct height.

However, after upgrading to version 3.8+ (including 3.9), when a window is maximized, it uses the full desktop resolution without subtracting the taskbar area. As a result, the taskbar overlaps the window. As you can see in the screenshot, the bottom status bar is partially obscured, with only a sliver visible.

I’m unsure whether this is an isolated issue on my end or a broader problem. No matter how I adjust the settings, I can’t resolve it.

I’d appreciate any feedback or assistance. My system is Windows 11 22H2, build 22621.105.

3.8+:
