Question

I have a form (Form1, the main form) that I wish to hide at the very start.

I want to do this because I’ve got a notifyIcon that, by clicking, sets visible true or false for the form, but I’m not able to set the visibility for the form at the very start.

Thanks

I’ve got an application that does exactly that. To solve it, do this in your Form’s OnLoad and it won’t appear straight away or in the task bar:

protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
{
    Visible = false;
    ShowInTaskbar = false;
    base.OnLoad(e);
}
