bottom bar disappeared
the last couple days my bottom bar has disappeared when im looking at you tubes or websites, so i can't change screens to check email, or access speaker selection... changing magnification doesn't help. escape key doesn't work to reduce size and see the bottom bar.. so annoying... is this windows trying to force me to give up on windows 10 or is it something i can solve on firefox.?.... im 78 so that tells you what level im at with solving this myself lol....

Hi Elgar,
Don’t worry — this isn’t Windows trying to force you off Windows 10, and it’s something we can try to fix in Firefox.
It sounds like your Windows taskbar (the bar at the bottom) might be set to “auto-hide” or is being covered by Firefox in full-screen mode. Here are a few things to check:
1. Exit full-screen mode in Firefox
Press the F11 key on your keyboard once.
If the bottom bar comes back, you were in full-screen mode. You can press F11 again to switch back.
2. Check Windows taskbar settings
Right-click an empty space on your taskbar (if you can see it).
Choose Taskbar settings.
Make sure Automatically hide the taskbar in desktop mode is turned Off.
3. Restart Firefox and/or your computer Sometimes, a quick restart clears up display glitches.
If the problem still happens only when Firefox is open, it could be an add-on or zoom setting. In that case, let me know, and I can walk you through checking those.
You’re not alone in this — we’ll get that bottom bar back!
