I can reproduce this. The game window appears to be rendering underneath the taskbar, rather than on-top of it.

It might be worth investigating if this is related to LWJGL/GLFW:

case WINDOWED_FULLSCREEN:
GLFWVidMode vidMode = desktopResolution.get();
GLFW.glfwSetWindowMonitor(window,
MemoryUtil.NULL,
0,
0,
vidMode.width(),
vidMode.height(),
GLFW.GLFW_DONT_CARE);
GLFW.glfwSetWindowAttrib(window, GLFW.GLFW_DECORATED, GLFW.GLFW_FALSE);
config.setDisplayModeSetting(displayModeSetting);
config.setWindowedFullscreen(true);

@BenjaminAmos reproduce with development version as well? in any case it would be really cool to release a new version, now new java version is stable. there is an ancient stackoverflow entry which looks kind of related:

I always try to reproduce issues with the latest development source where I can. This issue was still reproducable as of 1b48033.

As for a new release, I would like to resolve some of the more severe issues with #5150 first, which I an currently working through.

config.setDisplayModeSetting(displayModeSetting);
config.setWindowedFullscreen(true);

hi i reproduced it and i found out that when you go from full screen to windowed full screen the task bar is hidden but when i go from windowed to windowed full screen the task bar will appear

yes it was because of this code in engine/src/main/java/org/terasology/engine/core/subsystem/lwjgl/LwjglDisplayDevice.java
GLFW.glfwSetWindowMonitor(window, MemoryUtil.NULL, 0, 0, vidMode.width(), vidMode.height(), GLFW.GLFW_DONT_CARE);
i made it run twice and it worked
