From your description, I think you accidentally triggered something called "Magnifier Tool" and a restart did not fix this.

There are two ways to fix this. One way if your keyboard has the "Windows Key", which will be a 4-pane Windows logo key somewhere on the bottom to the left of the Space Bar, and the 2nd way if your keyboard is old and doesn't have a "Windows Key".

1. Windows Key

Just hold down the Windows Key and press the ESC key. It's the key on the top left of your keyboard.

2. Without the Windows Key

Hold down both CTR and ALT keys on the left of your Space Bar and then hit the letter "M".

Either way should get you out of Magnifier Tool and back to your normal sized screen with the taskbar visible again.

Sorry about this trap. I'll try to explain everything to you when you're back up and running. I hope it doesn't put you out too much or cause you too much stress.
