Hide taskbar using C #

Question

I am running Windows XP 64 bit. I want to hide the taskbar when the application starts.

I tried the codes using an online search. All of them hide the taskbar. But the problem is that when I open the notebook and maximize it, in fact it does not appear in full screen. Because the space where the taskbar was was still blocked by empty space. I want it to really fit in full screen mode.

Answer 1

I did this by making a borderless application, maximizing and setting it as Topmost. Here's a great example from CodeProject.

Answer 3

You can hide the taskbar by setting the following properties of your C # form.

WindowState: Maximized FormBorderStyle: FixedDialog

Answer 4

in window 7 (or possibly higher) the use FormWindowState.Maximizedis wrong, since the maximum size will be FormWindowState.Maximizedout of the FormWindowState.Maximizedtasks, but you can do it

this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal; // or default
this.FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.None;
this.TopMost = true;

// do it here
this.Location = new Point(0,0);
var fullscreenSize = new Size(Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Width, Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Height);
this.Size = fullscreenSize;
