Minimizer-XP

Minimizer-XP is a light weight application that can help you manage your minimized windows and keep your taskbar clean. With this program the minimized windows do not go to the taskbar but are stored by a tray icon keeping only the important applications on the taskbar.

The program runs in the background and adds a new button to the title bar of every window. If you want a certain window to go to the tray icon instead of the taskbar you need to use this button.

It is good to know that the new button does not replace the classic Minimize button but only provides you with a choice. Thus you can filter the windows that you want to keep at hand in the taskbar for quick access.

You can reopen a minimized window or all the windows from the tray icon's context menu or by clicking the program's icon. This tool can be helpful if you use multiple apps but you do not need to access all of them frequently.

For instance you might work on a project and listen to some music at the same time. You can easily minimize the audio player to the tray icon and make room on the taskbar for the project's documents.

The application can be run at the computer startup in order to permanently access its functions. It has no impact on the computer performance and requires an insignificant part of your computer's memory.

If you feel that your taskbar is often too crowded and you want to make some room, do not close your programs. Give Minimizer-XP a shot at the problem.
