wpf - A window with no taskbar icon, no appearance in Alt-Tab and *without* using the ToolWindow extended style -


i have problem appears new windows 10.

i want create form visible user, no task bar icon , not appear in alt+tab.

this doable if 1 happy sacrifice normal styling of window following accepted solutions here either wpf or windows forms.

the general advice both wpf , windows forms is:

  • set showintaskbar false
  • enable toolwindow styling (either through setting border style in winforms or windowstyle in wpf)

however, has new, practical problem in windows 10 when using virtual desktops: moment above, wpf or winforms window appear in every virtual desktop. see example application red background:

window appears in every virtual desktop

this affects both task view switching screen , actual desktop itself. no matter go, form there!

is there way show form - or bitmap - on windows without appearing in taskbar, without appearing in alt+tab and without duplicating window on every virtual desktop?

i have spent 2 days researching every possible option, trying every example online, reading msdn documentation on window styles etc. resort same method, either through p/invoke calls or directly, either way result same.
