My Taskbak is set to lock and I have it set up at the bottom of my screen, but as of yesterday I noticed it was gone. I reset my settings on my laptop and even firefox but it didn't work. So then I pressed F11, the first time I got a full screen, the second time I got the taskbar back. I continued to work and I was happy for less than I minute when I realized the taskbar was gone again. I pressed F11 again and the taskbar came back only to be gone again.

The taskbar at the bottom of my screen is not an option for me. I constantly need to switch between applications and programs in my computer to be able to do my work.

If this is a new setting of firefox that is permanent then is there another browser that you recommend other than internet explorer.

Please help me. I like firefox but I may have to say Adios permanently if I have to constantly reset my taskbar.

Then you say :

I'm confused .....

Dear McCoy:

I have set the taskbar as locked and it is gone as of yesterday.

I meant that having the taskbar locked at the bottom of my screen isn't optional rather a must so that I am able to do my work and switch between applications required for my work.

I am sorry for the confusion! Do you still have any idea why is this going on?

Thanks

Thank you for the clarification - I should have guessed it was something like that.

The first thing that came to mind was to make sure you're not in full screen mode, but you mentioned that you already toggled F11.

Would you take a look at this and see if there is something there to shed a light on it :
