Windows 11 Task Bar - Selected Never for Combining Icons. Works Correctly on 2 additional monitors but not main monitor.

I just got upgraded to Windows 11 on my work laptop. I don't want the icons to combine so I changed all the settings to "Never". It works correctly on the two additonal monitors, but not the main monitor. However, instead of the icons going all the way across the screen like it's supposed to, it will give me three dots half way across the screen and puts all my additional icons, emails, etc. there. Please see below. The weird part is that it will look correct initially, but then change to this below and will persist in this format. Help! I can't stand this! And our IT dept. is also confused why this is happening.

Thank you for your help.

    Hello

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community forum.

    From your description, you can try updating your graphics driver to the latest version. You can download the latest driver from the manufacturer's website. Also, you can try re-setting the combine icon and see if the issue persists.

    I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns. 

    Best Regards,

    Zack Lu
