TSTbarSet is a command-line utility to set common settings of the Windows Taskbar for individual user sessions and apply them immediately. Common settings include hiding the clock on the taskbar, hiding Taskbar itself, and setting the position of the taskbar within the user session. These settings are not easily set through group policy, therefore if an administrator wants to deploy common Windows Taskbar settings for multiple users, then a script is required and must be run prior explorer.exe starting, generally at pre-logon. TSTbarSet allows these settings to be implemented at anytime during a users session without the need to logoff and logback on again. Usage: TSTbarSet Setting1 [Setting2] [/?] Setting1 - Possible TaskBar settings (REQUIRED) - 0 = Show Clock in Taskbar. - 1 = Auto Hide Taskbar and Show Clock. - 2 = Taskbar Always on Top and Show Clock.
