Can a form run under the icons on the desktop?

I have a form in vs 2005 that does not move. Is there a way to have the form
under the icons above the desktop?

If so would it be possible to have that form at time that I want to move it,
pop up over the icons then when I am finished have it settle back under the
icons above the desktop.

I must not be understanding something about the use of forms in VB.Net that is different from VB. I have one form running in the background with an icon in the task bar. Right clicking on the icon gives you a list of options, one of which is to show an About form. After this form shows I get an error saying "Object reference not set to an instance of the object." I have tried opening the form with frmAbout.Show frmAbout.ShowDialog

I'm trying to create a windows explorer like app and the problem I'm having is getting the proper icon for the folders and items. In windows explorer there are many different icons and most seem to be in the shell32.dll. The problem is that there also seems to be custom icons that are installed by applications. For example, "My Music" In My Documents has an icon that is different from the normal folders. I have installed an application...

I'm using Windows XP. Sometimes when I log on to my user, the icons on my desktop will appear as soon as the blue "Loading your personal settings" screen is done and I can start running programs right away, but most of the time I have to wait a long time before they appear, and if I try running programs before they do, I usually freeze up my computer. I get an error message that says something like "Windows could not locate My Documents. Try...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
