    Hiding Running Applications


    I understand how to minimize running applications to hide them. I run an app that is always in non-windowed, full screen mode. Is there a way to force it to not show any other BG apps when in any open program or the windows desktop, similar to hiding background applications on the Mac?

    :)

    Hiding Applications

    Alright, this is not about minimizing applications. I want some way to hide an application from the taskbar (not closing it) and a simple way to open it back up without losing data. Any way how to do it?

    how to effectively hide or disable the taskbar?

    Hi,



    Did you try the “Auto-hide the taskbar” option from Taskbar properties?



    If you have not tried it, I would suggest you to follow these steps and auto-hide the taskbar:

    • Right click on Taskbar.
    • Click on Properties
    • Check the box Auto-hide the taskbar.
    • Click on OK.


    Hope this information helps.
