If you want to get rid of explorer's taskbar I've just found another nifty little app that does the job.
you can download it below.

It switches the bar on and off.
SO, Either you put a shortcut in RD, or, if you want to switch the bar off from startup, just put the link in the startup folder.
et voila

I am working on a more permanent solution to the gap problem, as well as a way to "reserve" desktop space for the dock. For the programming inclined amongst you, Look up SPI_SETWORKAREA.

There are 2 ways I know of hiding the taskbar. The registry has a more permanent method, or you can manipulate the taskbar as a window and hide it. Alternatively you just delete explorer.exe :)

How do I switch it on and off? I haven't tried it yet but i wanna kno how to switch it on and off before i try it out!!

Hey. I've found a way around that "Gap at the bottom" problem. Simply enable the taskbar, right click it, select "Properties" and uncheck "Keep the taskbar on top of other windows". Next time when you hide the taskbar, there should be no gap. Problem solved.

Brilliant work there. 5 stars from me! :D

when i clicked on it, the windows stayed the same shape (With a gap on the side)

is there anyway to fix that?

's Avatarjesusfreak (March 2, 2009):

This is really cool! But where do windows go when you minimize them?
