    I think you need to call GetMonitorInfo for the monitor of interest. You then need to read the work area out of MONITORINFO.rcWork. This will exclude any part of the monitor reserved for taskbar and indeed any other reserved areas.

    I don’t believe you need to worry yourself about autohide because GetMonitorInfo should account for that. In other words when autohide is enabled the work area will equal the monitor area.
