    Is it possible to hide certain windows from Task View (Win+TAB)?


    I have a few windows which are useless being in Task View (Win+TAB) in Windows 10, like Sticky Notes and a few other things, which just clutter the view.

    I was wondering if it was possible to hide certain programs from this view, possibly by using a registry edit or something like that?

    Thanks.

    Short answer is no.

    Task View is a piece of trash and even shows Minimized windows.

    Happily, there is a free alternative out there: BetterDesktopTool. Install it, go into the settings and you can set all sorts of keyboard shortcuts. One of them being to Show Non-Minimized windows.

    You can even outright exclude windows/programs from showing.

    Sadly, you can't use Alt-Tab as a shortcut but, eeeh, that is a small price to pay.
