When the start bar is hidden, a top portion of the bar remains on screen. This really is fine for the most part but I use an OLED tv for a screen and along with other habits I have to keep the pixels healthy I hide the task bar. Win11 completely hides the bar which is great, but lately I have really been wanting a win95 look! Any way to completely hide the bar would be awesome! Thanks

sorry I did not look through previous issues posts before sharing this- I see its been asked for already. I do think the reasoning here is a bit better than asking for it for aesthetic reasons. to protect my oled from burn in i have no static elements on my desktop, so i cant use the bar as is without the possibility for burn in.

Hmm. Does your OLED TV have an overscan option?
On my plasma I can turn on the overscan in the options and that would hide the little sliver of taskbar without hiding too much of anything else.
If not there is scaling options in your graphics card display settings. It might be possible to expand it a little or move it down so that bit at the bottom is off the screen.
