I have finally finished with the beta version of Window Hidie. Check it out here. Please read the usage instructions first, because they are not included in the program yet.

Window Hidie v0.1 (Beta)

For any projects there will be delays. Even for small ones such as Incognito, the window hiding utility I’m writing. Although I’m writing in C# in .NET (which cuts my development down by 80%), I have still hit some blocks in proper design of the program. I want to keep it all in a small executable, without any extra files or having to install it.

Much of it is completed, except for the formal stuff, such as the license agreement. The utility is completely FREE, but it will remain closed-source. It’s been obfuscated so anyone who tries to decompile it, will have a hard time putting it all together. Also it contains no spyware or malware. It’s only free because I don’t feel the need to charge for it. I wrote it for myself, because it’s very useful if you have people living with you, and can’t keep your privacy for longer than 5 minutes. Just one or two items remaining and I will release it to the public.

What is Window Hidie?

It’s a small C# utility I wrote to hide the active window.

Why do I need to hide windows?

There are several reasons. You may be viewing email, which you don’t want anyone to see. You may have personal data on the screen when doing your online banking. You don’t want your boss to see that your not working. Simply pressing two keys, it will hide the active window for you. So as soon as someone walks up, BHAM! The window is gone. By presses two keys, you can display all the hidden windows.

Where can I get it?

I’m finishing up the beta version and should be available soon. Bookmark this site or this article and I will update it as soon as I get back from Thanksgiving.
