Hi
is there a free o paid software that can hide the taskbar only when i run some program?

taskbar i guess it's correct ,i mean


thanks

You can enable auto-hide in Windows preferences. Right-click the taskbar and select "Settings" (or whatever the menu item is in English Windows).

Auto-hiding hides the taskbar even when you aren't running any program, though.

hi
i found Taskbar Control http://www.thefreewindows.com/3252/hide ... r-control/

but seems that doesn't work 100% under w10

thanks

If the reason is due to selections/dragging/cropping along the bottom/top/left sides on the screen (and having the taskbar appear when doing so) then I'd recommend moving the taskbar to the left of the screen. Did it a long time ago and it both saves space and doesn't interfere with most of the common operations.

I also use with 7+ Taskbar Tweaker to make the vertical taskbar narrower than it normally can be. Truly superb utility for a number of reasons.

hi
but to the left of the screen for me it's a nightmare

A little 'googling' can go a long way:

There is a special version of Taskbar Control released for Windows 10:

It is portable and works OK for me.

joby_toss, I didn't notice your comment above.

In practice this hides windows minimized to the taskbar when "no tray icon for minimized windows" is selected. Password protection is available for 'Trayed' items.

This may not help with your needs, and might not work in compatibility mode with your OS.

Do not know if the installer can be extracted but Softpedia has the installer.

The zip version has a file options.ini
