How Do I Disable The Task Bar On The Second Screen?

Modified on: Wed, 10 Mar, 2021 at 10:41 AM


Here is a link to a training video to show you how to disable the Windows taskbar on your second screen:



Windows 8 & 10 automatically enables the taskbar on all screens. You can turn off the taskbar on all screens except for the primary screen.


Here are the steps to turn off the taskbar on those other screens:


  1. Right-click the Windows taskbar.

  2. Click Taskbar settings.

  3. Uncheck Show taskbar on all displays. 

  4. Click OK.



This option will not be available if you do not have Windows Extended Desktop enabled.


For help setting up the Windows Extended Desktop, here is a link to our Screen Setup article:
