Answer 1

(I don't know what browser you're using (so I assume IE) so if I get this wrong don't blame me)



If you have pressed Ctrl+F (or F11) then you have initiated the fullscreen function.



Footnote: Don't use Internet Explorer, use a proper browser instead.

Answer 2

It's called the task bar in Win.



Right mouse on it and properties. Check the box to keep it on top of everything, in this case the browser.

Answer 3

If your in full screen then exit full screen. Otherwise hold down the windows key (the one next to the Ctrl key) and press R, type in "explorer.exe" then press enter.

Answer 4

F11 to enter/exit fullscreen on internet explorer, otherwise click start button, control panel, taskbar and start menu, you'll see autohide there, uncheck it, click apply and ok.
