Is there a way of hiding minimized windows so they don't appear on the bottom bar?

Question

I work on a Windows Vista by the way

Answer 1

I know the task manager has an option that says "hide when minimized", so it scoots into the notification area and chills when minimized.



Maybe other programs have such an option, too. But if they aren't on the bar where would they go? How would you get them back?

Answer 2

There is a way you can hide the bar and major appear when the mouce is where the bar should be

Answer 3

Yes, there are plenty of software that can do this. Just do a google search for "hide windows" and look around. I used one called HideAnyWindow (http://www.hideanywindow.com/) but that one is only a trial.

Answer 4

Right click on the bar at the bottom and go to properties, in there you should find: hid bottom bar

Answer 5

This might sound retarded but I just open a lot of blank pages until the blue bar can't hold them anymore and just puts them all together.
