Any taskbar hiding applications?

(1/6) > >>

SyRaza:
I'm looking to see if anyone knows of any taskbar hiding application. I'm using rainmeter as a taskbar replacement, along with mouser's excellent desktop coral. My issue is that Windows 10's autohide activates as when I get too close to the taskbar area. I don't need the default taskbar to be disabled, simply for it to not respond to mouse activation.

I've used eusing's Taskbar Hide application but it's a complete hit and miss. It'll stop working half the time and the default windows taskbar starts activating again. If I have the application set to start at windows login, it 100% of the time stop working after I open any maximized application, and then I have to exit and relaunch Taskbar Hide. Not a great solution all in all.

Any applications here on donationcoder to pair along with desktop coral?

Thank you!

Hello @SyRaza, is it viable to have the taskbar active with auto-hide + a Global hotkey for disabling/enabling the mouse in the area?

If something like this suffices, that's doable :Thmbsup:

app103:
You could try Skrommel's PushToShow: https://www.dcmembers.com/skrommel/download/pushtoshow/

It should hide your Taskbar unless you press the Windows key.

There is also CloseFence: https://www.dcmembers.com/skrommel/download/closefence/

That one keeps an autohiding Taskbar from accidentally appearing if you hover a bit too close to it.

TaskbarActivate still works under Windows 10, increase the delay before the Taskbar is expanded.
