Hi there,
I would like to know wether this kinda app is around. It should hide when the single exe is executed, and restore the taskbar when executed again. I would not like to be it a tray thingy. Any help?

Search for "pushtoshow" (a script by skrommel).

Now that is not what I'm looking for. 1. The thaskbar kets unlocked, don't like it. 2. Also the 'when mouse reaches bottom of the screen show op" function is not fine. 3. I would like to make a clickable shortcut, not a shortkey.

 How about this? RunAndHide - Run to hide or show the taskbar. You'll find the downloads and more info at 1 Hour Software by Skrommel. Skrommel

Well I didn't need this, but I tried it; it works and it works well. A zero-byte download (for AHK users) that is transparently safe as opposed to the exe Coeluh plumped for. Leave the file on your desktop and you don't even need to make a shortcut! Go ahead Coeluh, try it. The AutoHotkey download is extremely reusable and flexible; I guarantee you'll need it for another purpose sooner or later.

Well I like not to install AHK just for this, because this simple exe does the job. Thanks though.

do you mean the difference between the exe you found and the one Skrommel coded? I havent tried either but the obvious first difference is that you asked for help and someone custom-made a piece of software for you

Please help me! I'm using Skrommel's PushToShow application in the .exe form and I have a small request. Since I use it as a "special button" on a dock bar is there anybody who could make it work as a taskbar toggler? Like: -I click on the icon -> the program starts and hides the taskbar as usual -I re-click on the icon -> the program checks if it is already running and if so it shuts down and makes the taskbar visible again
Indeed, the "special button" I mentioned before is a link to a .vbs script that calls a .bat file.
To start dock+PTS I have a link on the QuickLaunch that runs
CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run """C:\\Documents and Settings\\Marco\Documenti\\Programmi portatili\\RK Launcher\\docklets\\Varie\\Avvia dock.bat""",0
which calls
start "" "C:\Documents and Settings\Marco\Documenti\Programmi portatili\RK Launcher\docklets\Varie\PushToShow.exe" start "" "C:\Documents and Settings\Marco\Documenti\Programmi portatili\RK Launcher\RKLauncher.exe"
And this works fine. To shut down, as I wrote above, I've placed a link on the dock that runs
CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run """C:\\Documents and Settings\\Marco\Documenti\\Programmi portatili\\RK Launcher\\docklets\\Varie\\Termina dock.bat""",0
which calls
tskill RKLauncher ***and here I do not know what to put!!!***
Please help me!
Thanks in advance and please answer me, Martina

you can try hamradio's TaskShowHide which does act as a toggle button.

Yeah I know but pushtoshow works far better for me, it makes the whole screen available for maximized windows without having to set "autohide taskbar" first, and also doesn't conflict with winamp tray icon. Hope skrommel is reading this topic

using autohotkey.exe, I have assigned skrommel’s runandhide to a hotkey — the right Winkey, actually — which hides and locks the taskbar. I use it all the time.
Very simple to put the existing run and hide code between a hotkey assignment and a return statement. rwinkey:: {run and hide code } return
