VB6 Window Hider 0.5

by on Apr.18, 2010, under Programming

Here it is: My most recent VB6 project. It’s a window hider, that means you can select one or multiple programs out of a list of running processes on your PC, click the hide button and all selected programs will be invisible, as well as the hider application will be minimized to the taskbar in form of a tray icon. By clicking on it, the window hider will be visible and you can restore your earlier minimized windows again.

But how could this be useful? Well, the major reason I made it, is that I like to play instead of working at the school computers. So as soon a teacher is in sight, I hit the “HIDE” button and will appear to be a honest and working student ^^

I also included an additional feature:
By putting an additional icon.ico file in the application path, you may change the tray icon. This way you can replace it by i.e an antivirus icon or anything else, to hide it even better.
