I set my Windows 7 taskbar to auto-hide. Cependant, sometimes when a program changes or something new happens in a program, la barre des tâches will show its self, and its respective taskbar icon will begin flashing orange.
Here's what I'm talking about:
To make la barre des tâches hide again, J'ai cliquez sur the program before I can go back to what I was doing.
Anyways, Personnellement, j'ai find this **very** annoying, and would love to find a way to either:
- Prevent la barre des tâches from having such alerts.
- Prevent la barre des tâches from showing its self when it has such alerts.
J'ai cherché around quite a bit, and really only found answers to this for XP.
I've also found another [Stack Exchange Question](https://superuser.com/questions/99952/windows-7-taskbar-auto-hide) looking for the same thing for Windows 7. Cependant, none of the answers to the question were really what Je cherche. I'm not looking to [hide](https://superuser.com/questions/99952/windows-7-taskbar-auto-hide/109181#109181) la barre des tâches, or [control the number of flashes](https://superuser.com/questions/99952/windows-7-taskbar-auto-hide/109570#109570).
Cependant, [this answer](https://superuser.com/questions/99952/windows-7-taskbar-auto-hide/275278#275278) seems to be what Je cherche, so J'ai téléchargé and tried out the program. Ça fonctionne perfectly, other than the fact that the menu Démarrer icon is always shown, regardless of la barre des tâches being set to auto-hide.
So, any ideas on how to fix this problem?
