Starting task-manager minimized on windows 10 (no flicker)

15 Aug 2018, 11:21

So on windows 10 I'm trying to make the task manager show up in the system tray on startup.
Without it showing up in the taskbar, and still allowing you to click the icon to open task manager.
This is the closes I got this to working, only thing I don't like is how the window pops up for a little bit.. But only way to make it the most convenient and functional out of everything i tried..

Code: Select all

#NoEnv  ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
; #Warn  ; Enable warnings to assist with detecting common errors.
SendMode Input  ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir%  ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.

Run, C:\Windows\System32\Taskmgr.exe
WinWait, Task Manager
PostMessage, 0x112, 0xF020
I wish there was a way to like open up a new desktop, launch it there and minimize it then close that desktop... But haven't seen anyone anywhere doing that on google.. Idk if I could hide the window on startup, minimize it, then un hide to prevent it from poping up by its self and allowing you to open it from the system tray..
