In case where you are fullscreen, doing some work and suddenly have to jump to the taskbar to switch to another program or to use a utility which resides in system tray menu. Pressing Start or Ctrl+Esc shows the taskbar with start menu open. The opened start menu is somewhat distractive when you are doing some focus-oriented tasks such as programming.



So, are there any ways to achieve this? Any tweaks? Any registry edits?



PS. I have tried many utilities such as 7+ Taskbar Tweaker but got nothing to work!

            Would doing Start+D (windows key + D) be useful maybe? This brings you to your desktop, and minimizes everything. It takes me out of fullscreen... at least, youtube fullscreen. Not sure about other programs.
