AceHide Free

AceHide Free is a very simple Windows utility that helps you hide any window instantly and thus save space on the screen.

The application can come in very handy to all those working with multiple programs at the same time and want a better organized working environment without having to close the active windows every once in a while.

AceHide Free places an icon in the System Tray and thus lets you hide or bring to front a certain window at any time, providing a few customization options to enhance this process.

Probably the most important configuration tool is the hotkey support that enables you to set up keyboard shortcuts to show and hide windows on the go.

Additionally, you can use the System Tray icon to hide the active window with a single or a double click.

Plus, AceHide Free can automatically load at Windows startup, show the hidden windows in the System Tray menu, reopen all windows when you exit an application and even invert the mouse buttons when you open the System Tray menu.

Although it is a pretty old utility, AceHide Free works flawlessly on Windows 7 and you don't even need administrator privileges to run it. Plus, it doesn't eat up CPU and RAM at all, remaining friendly with computer resources all the time.

All in all, AceHide Free is a quite a useful software tool that quietly sits in the System Tray and provides a nice way to organize the working space. And the hotkey supports makes everything so much faster.
