Boss Key - Extra Features

The application can start automatically when you start windows. It quietly starts in the background without displaying any messages and will wait for you to hit the hide-windows (bosskey) hotkey. Note that it eats up so few resources that you won't even notice that it is started.

  1. Hide newly created windows while in HIDE mode - this feature is very useful. For example, it will hide the nasty popup windows that appear from those pink websites or if a new chat window pops up from your chat client.
  2. Close the window that was active before hiding - you can insure yourself extra by using this option. It will kill the application that you were using before you hit the bosskey combination. For example if you were playing a game.
  3. Hide wallpaper - if your wallpaper has content that you do not like to share this option will be handy for you.
  4. Protect this application with password - even if someone accidentally hits your hotkey for displaying the settings window the application will prompt for a password and will not reveal itself.

In shortcuts panel you can change the default hot keys and also assign a mouse shortcut. If you use the mouse more frequently a mouse shortcut may be more convenient for you.

Finally the application also can switch your display resolution. This option is handy in order to restore your original display mode as many games are switching the display resolution. So setting this option to your current display mode will always restore the display mode to that one once the bosskey shortcut is used.
