Press one global hotkey and the windows, taskbar buttons and tray icons you chose disappear — nothing flashes on screen, nothing lingers in Alt-Tab, no icon left behind. Press it again and everything comes back exactly where it was: same position, same size, same stacking order. Built for focus, screen-sharing, presentations and privacy.

Most "window hiders" leave a tray icon or a taskbar button behind. gohide removes every trace you choose — and restores it cleanly — even on the current Windows 11 notification area, where older tools quietly stopped working. How tray hiding works on Windows 11 →

• Hide windows & taskbar buttons — remove an app's windows and its taskbar button in one move; nothing lingers in Alt-Tab.
• Hide system-tray icons — the part most tools get wrong. Works on current Windows 11 builds.
• Global hotkeys — one hotkey hides everything at once, one restores everything; per-app hide/show hotkeys and a lock-screen hotkey too.
• Restore in place — everything returns exactly where it was; nothing gets stranded.
• Mute or suspend while hidden — silence a hidden app, or pause its process so a background game stops using CPU/GPU (suspend is Pro).
• Privacy cover screen (Pro) — the moment you hide everything, a cover image or a cover-story app drops over the desktop.
• Hot corners & mouse triggers (Pro) — hide all by flicking the mouse into a corner or pressing a side button.
• Dynamic rules (Pro) — auto-hide apps by window title or class instead of picking each one.
• PIN lock (Pro) — nobody at your desk can change your rules or reveal hidden apps.
• Start with Windows, elevated — via a Task Scheduler task, no UAC prompt on every boot.
• English & 简体中文 — follows your Windows language automatically.
• Light and private — no account, no telemetry, works fully offline.
