Hi folks,

I'm trying to force windows taskbar to be hidden at all times unless I specifically hit the windows button. I have set the "Automatically hide the taskbar in desktop mode" option in Taskbar Settings. The main problem is apps that give notifications (mainly teams and Outlook) - whenever they add an alert the taskbar pops up and remains there until I acknowledge it. I don't want to turn notifications off completely. Is anyone aware of a registry hack or 3rd party tool that makes this possible as from what I've researched this is the intended standard behaviour in windows.

On Windows 10 if that makes any difference.

Thanks in advance!
