Showdesktop Button Resizer is a lightweight enhancement tool that gives you the possibility to change the dimensions of the "Show Desktop" button on the Windows 7 taskbar. For example, you can increase its size to make it easier to click on it and minimize all active panels to swiftly gain access to the desktop.

Portable utility for Windows 7 only

The program doesn't work with any other OS editions aside from Windows 7, nor with the OS classic theme. It doesn't require installation, as you can download and copy the executable file to a custom directory on the disk or to a USB flash drive to seamlessly launch it on any PC and customize the "Show Desktop" button. It doesn't update the system registry with new entries or generate new files on the disk. To perform an uninstall, it's only necessary to delete its executable.

Set the "Show Desktop" button size

The control panel has a simple design and layout, where you can pick a new size from a dropdown menu as well as enlarge or reduce the dimension by clicking on two buttons. The original size can be restored with the click of a button. Moreover, you can instruct the utility to autorun at every Windows startup until further notice.By default, this button has a fixed dimension of 15 pixels and can be increased to up to 24. With the help of this application, you can set it to any size ranging from 0 to 40 pixels. However, you should keep in mind that Showdesktop Button Resizer must remain running in the background to prevent the computer from undoing the modifications.
