Windows 7 has a new “Show Desktop” button all the way at the edge of the system tray area. Is there any way to get rid of it?
I never use it because I just press Win+D instead, and it’s kind of annoying to me.
Solution:
I really don’t like those precompiled closed-source tools so here is a simple AutoIt script that you can copy in your startup folder:
$hwnd = WinGetHandle("[CLASS:Shell_TrayWnd]", "")ControlHide($hwnd, "", "TrayShowDesktopButtonWClass1")
