I use my monitors in a vertical set up, one on top of the other. When I have a firefox window maximized on the bottom screen, the top of the window extends too far and ends up covering the top screen by 8 pixels. I've tried renaming xulstore.json, and while that does work, it ends up being too large again by the end of the session. I'm not sure what else I can do. Thanks in advance!

Is the Windows 10 Task Bar at a single row height, or is it extended higher?

I usually have the taskbar on the right side of my screen and it's as compact as it can get. I've included a screenshot of the taskbar settings options. One more thing to note, and I'm not 100% sure about it, but the issue may be related to using the win + shift + left/right key combination to swap windows between monitors. They are both the same resolution at 1920x1080 and primary desktop 1 is perfectly in line with secondary desktop 2. Also, I have trouble accessing my taskbar sometimes when it's hidden. Moving my mouse to the right side of the screen where I keep it does not cause it to show up sometimes. Perhaps the window extends too far in that direction aswell.
