Hi, I am using this along with windows' auto hide taskbar However, I notice Chrome is not working well with this This screenshot was a zoom call in Chrome where its hard to hit the mute button due to start menu not hiding image

I'm not sure how to reproduce this. What do you mean by "zoom call in Chrome"? If I try to use Zoom from Chrome, it asks me to download the Zoom Workplace desktop client, and that client works fine for me: the taskbar stays hidden when in fullscreen. (In fact, it stays hidden even when the client is merely maximized, which it shouldn't, but that's the opposite problem from the one you have.)

I've tried other fullscreen websites in Chrome (e.g. fullscreen YouTube video) and am not seeing any issues there either.

After using this extensively for 2 weeks, Im finding its more than just certain apps showing the start menu like Chrome If I enable auto hide start menu, and then use this, often times the start menu is shown even when it should be hidden Almost as if this app is too aggresively showing the start menu Not only did it fix the issue of start menu not showing when it should show, but it shows even when it should hide For example, right now I have a Putty window open and the start menu is showing when it should be hidden Does that make sense?

This never happens to me. Are you sure this is not caused by a "flashing window", as described in #17? If a window is "flashing" (blinking red in the taskbar), Windows will always bring the taskbar on top and it will stay there until you dismiss the flashing window. This is just normal Windows behavior - it is not caused by RudeWindowFixer, although RudeWindowFixer may make it more noticeable because this mechanism will appear to "work" more often.

Nope, not flashing
