I need to install a PC with Windows 10 pro 64bit. It will be customized with a dock to launch predefined application.
How can I close (or completely hide) the windows taskbar?
I have already found several tips to audo-hide the taskbar but it does NOT work in my case since when I close an application the taskbar appears again.
I cannot close explorer.exe because I need to I need to launch an application downloaded from the Windows AppStore (for example this: https://www.microsoft.com/it-it/store/p/pressreader/9wzdncrfj13b )
In order to launch this application, I run a BAT file containing this line:
C:\Windows\explorer.exe shell:AppsFolder\NewspaperDirect.PressReader_f09x14bt6ejbt!App
If I close explorer.exe this command does NOT work any more and I cannot launch this application any more. Furthermore, even if I close explorer.exe after launching the application, some features of that application will not work and I will not be able to close that application hence I came to the conclusion that I must close only the taskbar keeping explorer.exe alive.
At this stage, I can take into consideration also Windows registry modification to do it.
