The Chameleon Window feature protects your privacy. TweakWindow
allows you to change the icon and title of any window. Now you can stop
worrying about people looking over your shoulder at your taskbar.
Are you afraid to start some programs because someone may see you
using them? Do you avoid using the Autohide feature of the taskbar and all
active programs are visible on your taskbar (that is, their icons and titles)?
Do your colleagues look over your shoulder and tell your boss every time they
see you surfing the Internet or playing games? Every person wants to have a bit
of rest during his or her day and play solitaire or see a new video clip. But
you have to worry that you colleagues will see it and you will be fired. Now
you can stop worrying about your reputation. TweakWindow will help you protect
your privacy.
All programs that you use display the icon and the title bar that their
developer assigned to them. You can change the icon and the name of a shortcut
on the desktop, but not of its open window. With TweakWindow, you can change
the title and the icon of any window. For example, you can change the icon and
the title of a game for the icon and the title of MS Word (or other program) so
that everyone thinks that you are working on an important document. After you
change the window properties, the ALT+TAB dialog will display MS Word instead
of your game (or browser, media player, ICQ, etc.). Now you can just minimize
the window and nobody will know what programs you are actually using at the
moment.
Additionally, administrators in many offices use various spyware detecting when
forbidden programs are used judging from their window titles (Windows Media
Player, DivX, Solitaire, ICQ, etc.) and informing the administrator about it.
With TweakWindow, you can stop being afraid of that spyware after you change
the icons and the titles of windows. After you install TweakWindow, you can
feel more confident.
If you want to quickly hide any window, use the
Quickly hide / minimize into the tray without using the keyboard or
moving the mouse feature. If you use these features
together plus the TweakWindow invisible
mode, it gives you a powerful means to protect your
privacy.
TweakWindow provides you with two ways to make a window invisible - the "Chameleon
Window" on its title bar or the "Chameleon Window
" command from its system tray.
TweakWindow has the "Restore all" command that restores all modified windows
(transparent, topmost, ghost, minimized into the tray, hidden, changed icon and
title, etc.) to their original state. Additionally, all windows will be
restored once you exit TweakWindow.
TweakWindow supports the following operating systems:
-
Windows 2000
-
Windows XP
-
Windows 2003

work of ALL your other software.
Learn more about other features:
-
Transparent window.
Through a transparent window, you can see the contents of the window that is
below the one you are currently working with. With the "Transparent window"
feature, you will save a lot of time you would otherwise spend on switching
between windows.
-
Window always on top.
You can make a window stay always on top and this window will be displayed
above all other windows, when you are working with them. This will allow you to
see the results in the work of a program even if you are currently working with
another application that occupies the entire screen. If you want it, the window
can be made transparent whenever you make it topmost.
-
Rollup window.
Do you want to see a window on the screen so that it occupies as little space
as possible? Use the Rollup window feature for minimizing the size of the
window to the size of its title bar.
-
Ghost window.
If you want to see the window on top, but it is large in size and you have to
work with a window below it - make it a Ghost! A Ghost window stays on top of
other windows, can be transparent and let mouse clicks THROUGH to a window
below!
-
Minimizing a
window into the system tray. A lot of programs (such as
Microsoft Outlook Express, Windows Media Player and others) have no built-in
feature for minimizing into the tray. These programs must be running all the
time while you are working with the computer, but you use them only
occasionally. Other programs may be used only infrequently, etc. All those
programs occupy space on the taskbar and make it difficult to navigate between
windows. For example -
Minimize Microsoft Outlook Express into an icon in the system tray.
-
Hide window.
Are you afraid to start some programs because someone may see you using them?
Do you close programs and documents when you leave the computer because someone
may see your confidential information or steal your ideas? Now you don't have
to close all windows, when you leave the room - just hide them. Now you don't
have to close a game or your browser when someone comes up to you - just hide
them.
-
Chameleon feature.
Do you avoid using the Autohide feature of the taskbar and all active programs
are visible on your taskbar (that is, their icons and titles)? Do your
colleagues look over your shoulder and tell your boss every time they see you
surfing the Internet or playing games? Does your network administrator use some
spyware to detect if there is any forbidden software running? With TweakWindow,
you can change the title and the icon of any window.
-
Quickly minimizing into
the tray / hiding a window without using the keyboard or moving the mouse.
Do you need to quickly hide the window when somebody is coming up to your
display? TweakWindow helps you solve these problems.
-
Moving a window by clicking and

Do you need to move a window when the pointer is far from its title bar? Do you
have to get the pointer back to its previous position after you move a window?
Are you disappointed at the fact that Microsoft has not implemented such a
feature? Your problems are solved with TweakWindow!
-
Enhancing the "Move
pointer to the default button in dialog boxes" system
feature. Do you make use the useful "Move pointer to the default button in
dialog boxes" system feature, but find it does not work in many of your
applications? You do not know how to solve this problem, do you? We do! Use
