 I'm writing an article on maximizing your Windows screen real estate, and I wanted to toggle the taskbar auto hide setting with a keyboard shortcut. Unfortunately, the only built-in way to change the setting is to manually openTaskbar and Start Menu Properties and click the Auto Hide check box. This wasn't efficient enough for me, so I wrote a tray utility called Taskbar Autohide, which toggles the auto hide setting using a keyboard shortcut or tray icon. |

 If you're like me, you fumble around trying to pause your PC's media player every time the phone rings. The easiest way around this is to buy a multimedia-capable keyboard that has a mute or Play/Pause button. If you don't want to spend the money or you already have a keyboard you like, I have a workaround using NirCmd that allows you to mute the system volume from the keyboard.

 I like to create a directory that contains all my system utilities, which I call c:\support. Then I add c:\support to my system path so I don't have to type the whole directory name every time I use a utility. This article shows you how to create the directory and add it to your system path on Windows XP and Windows Vista.

 I had someone stop by the site recently looking for information on how to find their network card's MAC address, also known as a physical or hardware address. I realized that it's actually tough to find the MAC address in Windows Vista, so I decided to write an article to show how to find the MAC address in Vista, Windows XP and Mac OS X 10.4.

 Windows groups your taskbar buttons when they get too small by default. This means that by the time Windows actually groups the icons, you end up with so much taskbar clutter that you can't read the titles at all. Keep reading to find out how to control when Windows groups your taskbar icons.
