Glad you're getting it figured out :C

Ha! Looks like that's exactly what I did.:S
Thanks

Great news! Now you have a new trick up your sleeve ;)

On the top of the screen - I'm calling it a menu bar but maybe it's just the browser bars (fire fox).

It has the tabs on top and the url, forward/back, bookmarks, home, print etc.

Maybe I should get my laptop (win 10) and look through the settings and compare to the desk top. Laptop works fine.

Thanks

Ah, you're talking about the Firefox menu bar! That's not a Windows setting. Hover your mouse up there, and when the bar appears, click the Menu icon on the right. Then click Full Screen.

Alright,

Well I guess this is somewhat embarrassing, but here is what I discovered.

I rarely work out of windows desktop. Always have the browser and various tabs open, and just work out of the browser. I had occasion this afternoon to go to the desk top and low and behold, there was the task bar showing again. Go back to the browser and the task bar disappeared.

Restarted FF and the task bar is back in the browser.

Go back to the notifications settings and turn notifications off (again) and so far the task bar is still there...

And it appears the visual and audio notifications of what song is playing, and camera uploads is now gone.

The visual notification of a received email is gone, but I think the audio notification is still there. I'll have to test it some more, but my wife is tired of sending me 'test' emails this evening. :) There may be some settings relative to notification in outlook 2016 I need to look at for this.

Thanks again!

I did try that and the check box is checked to lock the task bar.
