How to hide windows in Taskbar
by Kyle on November 14, 2009
If you’ve been reading this guide perhaps there are two things on why you’re interested in hiding windows in your taskbar . One is that you want to get rid of messy bling blings in your taskbar if you’re working hard in your job. Or you want to keep some secret stuffs if someone snoops accidentally in your room. Anyway it’s a good thing that you come into the right place since I’ll be teaching you the most effective way in hiding windows in your taskbar.
First I want you to know that I won’t be tweaking any files in your windows registry. It could corrupt your operating system if you deleted a file or altered a line of code in windows registry. What I’ll be introducing is a much safer way and the most effective of all. You just need to download a freeware application called OuttaSight. OuttaSight works in windows operating system and it’s free to use. It’s been around since 2001 yet few individuals know this application. It’s a lightweight application and it would only take a couple of minutes to download and install the application.
The interface is very old school but don’t get fooled by the looks of it since it works really really well. To get you started, You can click the Hot-Keys tab and get introduced to the basic functions of the program. All you have to remember is the Ctrl+Alt combination followed by the SHOWX initials(ctrl+alt+s, ctrl+alt+h, etc). It functions instantly so you don’t need to wait for a couple of seconds before the windows get hidden. What’s really cool about this is that it also hides the process in Windows Task Manager(Ctrl+Alt+Del). It has a password protect option to protect your windows if someone tweaks the OuttaSight options. If you’re a xp or vista user some of the functionalities might not work like system tray hiding. OuttaSight is designed for Windows 2000 so some options won’t work. But still the most basic functions works perfectly.
