Instantly hide windows with a predefined hotkey combination
ZHider is a tiny and easy-to-use utility that can instantly hide windows (programs) with a quick keystroke. Windows are hidden completely from view and from the task bar without a trace.
Users will be able to remove clutter windows, while still keeping certain windows to yourself that you don't want to save or close, thus protecting privacy if anyone comes by, and even hiding windows from your boss.
Here are some key features of "ZHider":
· Global hotkeys arranged for discreet use and with keystroke combinations that allow you use from virtually any keyboard (101-keys, remote connections, etc.).
· Instant hide-and-add feature allows you to hide a window instantly and keep it in a list of windows to toggle hide/unhide (with another hotkey).
· Launches and operates silently and with great stealth: no windows, sounds, or even system tray icon is visible.
· List mode displays a fully-detailed list of all windows added to the list and a feature-rich interface for hiding, unhiding, and removing windows. You can even view the class name and window ID of each window!
· No bulky install / uninstall software package. You can grab-and-go, launch from a disk, etc. without ever modifying the Windows system registry, installing files to system directories, or risking detection by modifying the existing file system.
· The program file can be renamed for complete discretion.
· Tiny size makes the program fast to load and easy to hide.
· Includes optional Task Manager stealth, masking not only itself but any hidden applications from detection
· Allows command-line instructions for launching processes silently with full support for UNC-coded network paths and environment variable expansion
· Hidden/added window list is now partially transparent while moving it.
· You can supply ZHider with command-line instructions for launching processes forcibly hidden.
· Automatic pass-through of command-line instructions to a global instance of ZHider - zHider now makes an attempt at hiding itself from the standard Task Manager using DLL injection and window subclassing.
Bugs fixed:
· ZHider will cease maintaining lists of windows to processes that have terminated and/or no longer valid windows.
Features added:
· Hidden/added window list is now partially transparent while moving it.
· You can supply ZHider with command-line instructions for launching processes forcibly hidden. Unfortunately, a process may decide to create many (or no) windows, so it's not possible for ZHider to determine which is the 'main' window for the application. As a result, ZHider will add all top-level windows with a non-blank titlebar name that the new process creates within 5 seconds to its list of managed/hidden windows.
· Automatic pass-through of command-line instructions to a global instance of ZHider. You can use multiple command-line instructions without spawning multiple instances of this program.
· zHider now makes an attempt at hiding itself from the standard Task Manager using DLL injection and window subclassing. It will also attempt to make invisible/hidden ...
