How to hide desktop icons.

[John]

Could not seem to find it on the forum so I did a little looking on MSDN and found it.

Code:

Copy      Help

int hwnd=win("Program Manager" "Progman")

ShowWindow hwnd SW_HIDE
5
ShowWindow hwnd SW_SHOW

On Windows Vista 64 bit, running Stardock Deskscapes (moving background), the background does not continue to play while the icons are hidden. Is there an alternative way to hide the icons by actually toggling the setting in the right click->view->Show Desktop Icons without manually doing it?

Copy      Help

int hwnd=id(1 win("Program Manager" "Progman"))

ShowWindow hwnd SW_HIDE
5
ShowWindow hwnd SW_SHOW

Your solution works, as always. Thanks!
