[pyrates999]

Please show a screen shot of the taskbar resizing to half the screen.

Please post windows version and build. You can find this by running winver.
Please post explorer patcher version.

Please include what settings you changed in explorer patcher properties application. These should be screen shots.

Please include any other software you have installed that modifies the UI of windows.

No other software is installed that modifies UI. Everything is stock. I use dark theme. I redacted my apps in the following screenshots.

When this happens, open up task manager and kill explorer.exe and then run task manager again and run explorer.exe.

Does that fix it?

[Infi220]

It doesn't fix. The taskbar still restarts at half screen size.

Are your monitors connected via display port? It might be related to this: #1605

[Infi220]

Only monitor 2 is display port. The others are HDMI. The taskbar is on monitor 3 (HDMI)

[pyrates999]

are your gpu drivers up to date?

[Infi220]

Yes. Have you tried to repro the problem on your end?

[pyrates999]

I don't run windows 11 and only one monitor.

Do the monitors have different resolutions?

[Infi220]

Monitor 1 is 4k, the others are 1920x1200, but the bug persists even when I run all 3 monitors in identical resolutions.

[pyrates999]

Check what happens when using the console in explorer patcher. Open up the properties application for explorer patcher, go to advanced, and click on enable console. Recreate the bug and copy and paste the results here.
