How to Hide Taskbar in Amazon Prime Video
Are you tired of the taskbar taking up valuable screen space while you’re enjoying your favorite movies or TV shows on Amazon Prime Video? Don’t worry; you’re not alone. Many users find the taskbar to be an unnecessary distraction. In this article, we’ll guide you through the steps to hide the taskbar in Amazon Prime Video on your Windows PC or Mac.
Step 1: Accessing the Taskbar Settings
The first step is to access the taskbar settings. On a Windows PC, you can do this by right-clicking on the taskbar itself. On a Mac, you’ll need to go to the Apple menu and select “System Preferences.”
Step 2: Adjusting Taskbar Visibility on Windows
For Windows users, once you’ve right-clicked on the taskbar, select “Taskbar settings.” In the “Taskbar” section, you’ll find an option called “Automatically hide the taskbar in desktop mode.” Toggle this option to “On” to hide the taskbar when you’re using your computer in desktop mode.
Step 3: Adjusting Taskbar Visibility on Mac
For Mac users, in the “System Preferences” window, go to the “Dock & Menu Bar” section. Here, you’ll find a checkbox labeled “Automatically hide and show the dock.” Check this box to hide the dock (which includes the taskbar) when you’re not using it.
Step 4: Customizing Taskbar Visibility
If you want more control over when the taskbar is visible, you can further customize the settings. On Windows, you can choose to hide the taskbar only when you’re in full-screen mode by toggling the “Hide the taskbar when maximized windows are on the desktop” option. On a Mac, you can use the “Minimize windows into the dock” option to hide the dock when you’re not using it.
Step 5: Using Hotkeys for Quick Access
If you frequently need to hide or show the taskbar, you can use hotkeys for quick access. On Windows, press “Win + B” to cycle through the taskbar visibility. On a Mac, press “Ctrl + F3” to toggle the dock visibility.
By following these simple steps, you can easily hide the taskbar in Amazon Prime Video and enjoy a cleaner, more focused viewing experience. Whether you’re watching a movie or binge-watching your favorite TV series, hiding the taskbar can make all the difference. Happy streaming!
