Transcription If you’re the type that feels that the taskbar in Windows 11 takes up too much visual space, here’s how you can hide it. Simply move the mouse to the taskbar, select “Taskbar settings” – and when this comes up, simply scroll down to the “Taskbar behaviors” section, left-click that, and then you’ll see an option called “Automatically hide the taskbar”. Just select that, and you’ll notice the taskbar immediately disappeared at the bottom. To make it re-appear, I have to move the mouse down here. So again, I’ll move the mouse away – it hides, move the mouse back, it comes back up. I’m going to close this window now. When I close that window, the taskbar came … Read more

It’s very common for me to get gratitude, which is always appreciated, so you have a “merci” right here which is essentially “thank you.” And then there’s also questions, so “How do I disable it on Windows 10?” Again, great, because it sets me down a path where I learn something and potentially post a video about it to help the person after.

Oh that’s, that’s nice, that’s … Read more

So this was becoming pretty routine, I was putting up a lot of videos, you know, copying the same format, just changing certain things, knowing that I would come back later and perfect it. But then I weirdly encountered one post that just wouldn’t load on my site. And bear in mind that I wrote the code for this website, so if something doesn’t load, and there’s some strange behavior, then there’s no one to blame but me, and that makes me especially curious to understand what’s going … Read more

Transcription So in previous versions of Windows, there used to be a feature called Aero Shake. The way Aero Shake worked is you would left-click a particular window in the title bar here, left-click and hold and you could shake the mouse, and that would make the windows behind it actually disappear. So the windows behind here would actually disappear. Now, in Windows 11, it seems like they disabled this by default. Here’s how you can bring it back. You simply press the start button, you type Settings, press ENTER, and then when this window pops up you click “System”, and then you go down to where it says “Multitasking” and you click that. And then here where it says … Read more
