There is no built-in option in Windows to completely hide the Taskbar (other than setting it to Auto-hide). Using NirCmd or a similar 3rd party tool, you can hide the Taskbar using it's Windows Class name.

Command-line to hide the Taskbar

nircmd.exe win hide class Shell_TrayWnd

And to show the taskbar, use:

nircmd.exe win show class Shell_TrayWnd

But I want to hide it only when I'm on the full screen start menu – Skrey – 2016-07-18T12:14:58.173

Easier option would be to create 2 shortcuts (one to hide, another one to show), and assign a hotkey. For example, Ctrl + Alt + S can be assigned to show taskbar, and Ctrl + Alt + H can be assigned to hide it.

There is no automatic way to do that. – w32sh – 2016-07-18T12:16:26.677
