Windows taskbar disappears

I am using AutoCAD LT 2025 with Windows 10 on 2 displays. Sometimes, the taskbar on display 1 disappears, but remains on display 2. I use Autocad on display 1. When I close AutoCAD, it returns. Does anyone else have this problem and know of a remedy for this?

Your AutoCAD window might not be maximized even though it fills up the entire screen.

Soution: Maximize the window using the button at the top right corner.

Is this a sudden new problem, or did you just add a second monitor for the first time?
Is this a laptop/external monitor setup? Of two monitors attached to a desktop?

Or are you using VPN to access your office computer from your home computer and this is your home-only problem?

If the tip above does not help, your Win10 issue may need other fixes

I thought of that. It's maximized.

I have been using dual monitors for at least 7 years (WFH), so this is not new, but the issue seems to have developed since I started using LT about a year ago. I am using a desktop computer, not a laptop, and I am connecting to an office server through a VPN. I will look at the link you sent. I have a feeling this is an issue with Windows and how it might be interacting with AutoCAD since it always comes back when I close it. I'll also update my drivers to see if that corrects the problem. Thx

I have this same issue. Had it previously on a PC with Win10 and still have the issue on a new PC with Win11. No VPN.
