I went digging for this and got frustrated and pushed it back. I went back again today and same results. No idea how to get this one.

TP109: Thanks but I can't tell if that's the installer or the plain EXE because it's using brothersoft's weird downloader. |
Minime is a tool that allows you to minimize applications to the system tray using a customizable hotkey (by default CTRL+ALT+Z). What makes this tool somewhat unique is that it keeps your system tray clean by minimizing all applications into a single tray icon. Minime-ized applications do not appear in the Alt+Tab menu.
Functional in 64-bit. Written using AutoIt.

If the icon disappears (this *occasionally* happens when Explorer acts up in Win7x64) don't run Task Manager and End Task. Your hidden windows will not return. The trick is to RE-RUN Minime and, when prompted, click "OK".

I see that many people use this to declutter their desktop, but I like to use on my work computer when I'm plying my game and I don't want my boss to see it ;-) |
TrayEverything shows a list of currently opened programs with their associated windows and allow you to either hide any of the windows, or minimize them to the system tray. You can also assign a password when you hide/minimize a window so that only someone who knows the password can bring the window back into view.

The installer can be downloaded from Softpedia: |
allSnap is a small system tray app that makes all top level windows automatically align like they do in programs such as Winamp or Photoshop. Hold down ALT to disable snapping.
Note: Doesn't work with floating toolbars, programs that already have this functionality (Winamp), Microsoft Office 2007, and the Command window (cmd.exe).

This is one of the most useful tiny helpers EVER!! I love the tool, i strongly recommend it to everybody! I have spent months searching for something similar, and have even made an AutoHotkey-Script to help with clean windowpositioning, but finally, the quest is over ;) |
Taskix lets you reorder buttons on the taskbar using drag-and-drop. Note that if "Group similar taskbar buttons" is set, you will be able to move a button inside the group or move the group as a whole, but not to move a button out of its group. If you open many windows so buttons end up stacked up on a single taskbar button, Taskix will also work inside the stacked button list.

Taskix seems to occasionally get windows confused for me. I've had a few windows which simply won't come to the top when I click on them - they stay behind the others. It's not necessarily taskix at fault (I have VirtuaWin running as well), but switching it off fixed the problem.

kaleb, the new version of Taskix uses the MSI install method. |
Taskbar Shuffle allows you to rearrange the buttons on the taskbar by using drag-and-drop. You can also rearrange the system tray icons by pressing the CTRL key while dragging and dropping.

Thanks GoD, for pointing to Taskix. It is portable, undemanding (1MB memory footprint) and gets the job done...

Useful App for organizing taskbar buttons and system tray icons for easier access. It is not as memory friendly as Taskix but I have found that after running this for a little while its memory usage drops to just below 1,500 KB. The author comments on this in response to the second question at

A nice small prog that I used with pleasure, but now I replaced it with TaskbarShuffle, which also allows for drag&drop: http://portablefreeware.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=6031#6031 |
Taskbar++ allows you to reorder the taskbar buttons to your liking. Simply press the [Alt] key, and the taskbar will toggle into a "sort" mode where you can drag-and-drop the buttons to reorder them.
