C# - Form: How to remove icon from Alt-tab?

[gusma728]

Is there an easy way to remove the icon of a form (in this case a progress bar) from the alt-tab menu? When the progress bar appears in my appIication the default program icon appears in the alt+tab menu.

I have found suggested solutions to the problem by setting the formborderstyle to toolWindow but the formborderstyle has to be FixedDialog.

Thanks for any help

You can remove it from the taskbar with the form's "ShowInTaskbar" property, but according to Sams C# you can't remove it from the Alt-Tab list (which would make it inaccessible to the user).

If you installed your process as a service, or had no GUI windows at all, your process would be hidden from alt+tab.

Actually I think if you .hide() or whatever your GUI it removes it from the alt+tab.
Just make sure you have some way to bring it back. (Like a statusIcon)

ToolWindow solution worked perfectly for my application.
