    Hi,
    is there a way to restrict the Windows taskbar (menu, navigation and notification area) to one screen or display if you have connected two?

    My intention:
    Left screen: Windows taskbar
    Right screen: Mac dock

    Kind regards

    Hello @LudwigS1, when Windows is running, please click on 'View' in the Windows virtual machine menu on the top left and, in the drop-down menu, disable the option 'Use All Displays in Full Screen'. Please let us know if this helps.

    Hi,
    thanks for the fast response.
    Clicking View->Use All Displays in Full Screen seems not to change anything. Nothing is happening actually.
    I tried reboot and logout. The taskbar shows on both screens.
    What else can I do?

    Regards

    Hi @LudwigS1, please let us know what version of Parallels Desktop do you have installed on your Mac. If it is the version 12, please update it to the latest build.

    SOLVED:
    Inside Windows 10 settings (!), Multiple displays -> Show taskbar on all displays [OFF]

    I was confused thinking that Confluence is responsible, however I am also not really an insider of Windows 10 settings, so that explains it.

    Regards
