🚫 Hide Taskbar (Prevent accidental popup)

QuickHotkeys can prevent the Windows Taskbar from appearing when you accidentally move your mouse to the bottom edge of the screen.

Normally, Windows shows the Taskbar when you hover the bottom edge — this can interrupt workflow. This feature removes that behavior.

How it works:

  • The Taskbar will NOT open when you move the cursor to the bottom edge of the screen.
  • The Taskbar will only open when you hover a selected screen corner (default: bottom-right).
  • You can still open the Taskbar normally by holding Ctrl while hovering the bottom edge.

Features:

  • Prevents accidental Taskbar popups
  • Improves full-screen and window management workflow
  • Customizable activation corner (bottom-left / bottom-right)
  • Can be enabled or disabled with a hotkey

👉 This is useful for users who work with:

  • fullscreen apps
  • multiple windows
  • design / coding / multitasking setups

⚙ Settings Panel

All modules can be enabled/disabled:

  • Mouse gestures
  • Window control system
  • Browser shortcuts
  • Sticky keys
  • Auto replace
  • File explorer tools

Each feature is independent.


🖥 Requirements

  • Windows 10 / 11
  • Runs in system tray
  • Auto-start supported

📌 Notes

  • Safe to use
  • No ads
  • No tracking
  • No system modification outside hotkeys layer
  • Lightweight background process
