Did Windows 1809 mess with the taskbar?

Installed 1809 via USB stick on this device earlier today - No new tool bars Downloaded and installed a few NVIDIA driver(for this device MX150 graphics processor) using setup.exe which included GeForce Experience, PhysX and drivers. Was using driver 388.73 replaced with 397.31, then repeated with the latest 418.91(Feb 2019) - No additional toolbars (Quick Launch and Win10 Taskbar remained intact, no new toolbars) - Uninstalled GeForce Experience, PhysX was present before and not removed(its Control Panel provides an option I occasionally use for 3D) Tried, but couldn't duplicate the op's issue - didn't notice anything different with 397 or 418 vs. 388; 397 worked fine/rolled back to it. The "footprint" of the package was reduced at some point. It would still be possible to install an older package, such as a new video card with installer DVD in box, it could have an older driver in it. For example, I have one older video card here, that I always use the DVD in the box to install it on a new OS. Paul |

Must take up close the half of the DVD then if the download is smaller! - the extracted download driver is 1.6GB and consistent with the release info that clearly state 1.5 times the size of pre-extracted(553MB) file is needed. I did notice, and not something I need(that the later drivers add a 'bunch'(didn't count them or dwell on)of additional NVIDIA Control Panel options/features...I suspect for the gamer/HD community. -- ....w¡ñ§±¤ñ msft mvp 2007-2019 |

I ues the small taskbar buttons, and before the buttons just fit between the top and bottom of the taskbar. Now, there is room enough for an extra row of buttons below the ones I have, and the taskbar refuses to shrink any smaller. Help! To clarify: The toolbar is not locked, and I have already set the small icons on. If it wasn't 1809, then it must be my installing the nvidia graphics card, but I can't find any settings anywhere that would affect the tool bar. I know that things are different because where the icons in the notify area used to be in a single line, they are now in two lines. hover your mouse over the top line of the toolbar and it will change to two arrows pick what you want, up or down. |
