So I just got a new machine the other day. Still have windows seven because I can't get a jaws upgrade at the moment. How would I go about getting the desktop to not show up when I alt-tab between things? I had it hidden on my old machine but now I forgot how I did it.

Right click and unpin.

Don't know what that means.

Oh, you know I never even thought of doing that. Thanks. Imp, it means on your task bar, you'll have icons which you can left and right click. Right clicking on the desktop one should bring up a context menu which you can then select unpin from.

I don't see that icon when I right click anywhere. If I alt tab from the desktop it says lost focus.
