Explorer Tab Utility Window Hider - Windhawk Mod

This is a Windhawk mod that prevents w4po's Explorer Tab Utility program window from appearing and being visible. The program continues to run in the background, but its window never appears.

Problem

Explorer Tab Utility normally runs in the background, but sometimes its window becomes visible at computer startup and needs to be manually closed.

Solution

This Windhawk mod completely blocks the Explorer Tab Utility window. The program continues to run in the background with all its functionality, but its configuration window never appears.

How It Works

This mod hooks the following Windows API functions:

• ShowWindow / ShowWindowAsync - Prevents the window from being shown
• CreateWindowExW - Hides the main window immediately after it is created
• SetWindowPos - Prevents the window from being made visible via positioning
• SetForegroundWindow / BringWindowToTop - Prevents the window from being brought to the front

Installation

1. Download and install Windhawk
2. Open Windhawk
3. Click "Discover"
4. Search for "Explorer Tab Utility Window Hider"
5. Install the mod
6. You're all set!

Target Process

Notes

• The mod hooks multiple Windows API functions to completely block the window.
• The program continues to run in the background and all functions (shortcuts, Explorer tabs, etc.) work.
• You need to temporarily disable the mod to make configuration changes.
