Comes with both GUI and CLI. Website Repo for docs and landing : https://github.com/aamitn What does it do exactly? It is an aplication to hide/unhide app windows from screenshare and taskbar/task-switcher while still be able to use and interact with the applcation in your system. What goes under the hood? The tool performs dll injection with dlls containg targets for : - SetWindowDisplayAffinity to WDA_EXCLUDEFROMCAPTURE. (For hiding from screenshare) - Modifying the window’s extended styles (For hiding from taskbar & taskswitcher) : - It removes the WS_EX_APPWINDOW style, which normally causes a window to appear in the taskbar and Alt-Tab. - It adds the WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW style, which hides the window from the taskbar and Alt-Tab.
