Hi there.

I need 1 of the 2 things found if possible for Windows 10 only. Either to remove (NOT disable) the show desktop button (which I have no use for at all) at boot up, NOT startup, or remove taskbar at boot up, but still have access to the Windows key for the start menu. I have already removed the system tray arrow permanently using regedit and would like a regedit/bat file/command prompt for one or the other. I have tried all manner of tweakers and 3rd party apps, but to no avail!

Please help if you can.

Thanks,

Gavin.

Hi Gavin,

I'm not sure, check Settings > Personalization > Taskbar and play around with the settings there!:

Maybe you mean:
Right click the taskbar. Untick "Show the desktop?

By bootup do you mean the computer maker's logo? That's built into the BIOS and occurs before the Windows startup.
