We have a fix for that in the latest 9.7 Beta version :)

Glad to hear you were able to get it sorted out, thanks for following up! ]]> RE: Windows maximise behind Windows taskbar nvsurround https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-maximise-behind-windows-taskbar-nvsurround/?ID=07947729-d34b-44df-a9a1-c8be1f698e34#3 Mon, 01 Jun 2020 19:58:53 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-maximise-behind-windows-taskbar-nvsurround/?ID=07947729-d34b-44df-a9a1-c8be1f698e34#3 DisplayFusion

Thanks for the reply Keith! Managed to solve the issue - I was looking at a post about renaming the nvidia nvsmartmaxapp but was confused as to why I couldn't find it in the location of the post. I searched my C drive for the file and found them in a different folder - renaming them solved the issue.
I'm guessing for whatever reason, DF wasn't detecting and asking to disabled the nvidia surround services. ]]> RE: Windows maximise behind Windows taskbar nvsurround https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-maximise-behind-windows-taskbar-nvsurround/?ID=07947729-d34b-44df-a9a1-c8be1f698e34#2 Mon, 01 Jun 2020 19:48:17 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-maximise-behind-windows-taskbar-nvsurround/?ID=07947729-d34b-44df-a9a1-c8be1f698e34#2 DisplayFusion I'm not able to reproduce this when I test here.

Maximising a Windows on the center monitor will force the app behind the Windows taskbar, DF taskbars act as they should.
I've found numerous posts on this from years ago but none of the fixes seem to work. How is this still an issue? ]]>
