Taskbar

[Dieuz]

Is there a way to prevent the program to disapear in the taskbar when using GUISetState(@SW_HIDE, $Window)? I mean, even if the window is invisible, I want to see that it's working in the taskbar.

Thanks

Don't you want to just @SW_MINIMIZE in stead of @SW_HIDE?

Well Im switching between 2 windows that have the same title so when I press on the button that bring the second window (and hide the first one), it remove the program from the taskbar for 1sec and instantly bring it back... I just want the program to stay in the taskbar and seem to never leave.

This should work, you get the idea.
