Automatically hide and show the dock is greyed out, how to reactivate the option?
Ask Different Asked by Nic Wanavit on November 17, 2021
I have been using macOS Catalina since its release but today the Dock suddenly refuses to hide. In the preference pane, the Automatically hide and show the Dock option is greyed out.
I have tried killall Dock which hides the dock for 1 second, then it comes back.
macOS details
OSX Catalina 10.15.5 (19F101)
Mac book pro 16" 2019
