Make Roblox Full Screen and Hide the Windows Taskbar

Source-checked About 5 minutes

Answer

Join a Roblox experience, open the Roblox menu, select Settings, and switch Fullscreen to On. If the Windows taskbar still stays over the experience, open Windows Settings > Personalization > Taskbar > Taskbar behaviors and enable Automatically hide the taskbar. Success means Roblox fills the display and the taskbar appears only when you move to the bottom edge or leave full screen.

Join a Roblox experience

Open Roblox and join any experience you can move around in. The Fullscreen control is inside the in-experience Roblox menu, not the Roblox.com account settings.

Turn on Roblox Fullscreen

Press Esc or select the Roblox menu button in the upper-left, open Settings, find Fullscreen, and switch it to On. Select Resume to return to the experience.

Check the Roblox result

Move the pointer to the middle of the screen. Roblox should fill the display without a normal app title bar. Press F11 to toggle full screen if you need to compare the two modes quickly.

Enable Windows taskbar auto-hide

If the taskbar remains visible, right-click an empty part of it and select Taskbar settings. Expand Taskbar behaviors and select Automatically hide the taskbar, then return to Roblox.

Verify the taskbar behavior

Keep the pointer away from the bottom edge. The taskbar should slide out of view; moving the pointer to the bottom should reveal it again. That reveal is normal Windows behavior, not a failed Roblox full-screen setting.

Reset the two controls if the taskbar is stuck

Turn Roblox Fullscreen Off, leave the experience, then clear and reselect Automatically hide the taskbar in Windows. Rejoin the experience and turn Fullscreen On again so both controls start from a known state.

If it does not work

  • If Esc opens an experience-specific menu instead of Roblox Settings, select the Roblox logo in the upper-left and choose Settings there.
  • If the taskbar appears only when the pointer touches the bottom edge, automatic hiding is working as Windows describes.
  • If Roblox becomes cropped or opens on the wrong monitor after full screen is enabled, turn Fullscreen Off and use the related screen-resolution guide before trying again.

The workflow separates Roblox's display mode from Windows' taskbar behavior and gives a visible result for each control.
