    Worked for me on Windows 10 TP 9926; however autohide taskbar has stopped working. Uninstalled uwd and now autohide taskbar is working normally.

    yes! I was waiting for someone to chime in, ms has made it where on windows 10, if you "tamper" with the watermark, other things do not function as normal, more than the taskbar will stop working eventually

    Thanks for this tool!
    Maybe you would consider a "/silent" command line option? That would be great for PostInstall systems. Maybe you could then also add "/reboot":
    /silent only: Remove watermark, but don't reboot
    /silent /reboot: Remove watermark and reboot.

    Thanks again!

    My only question is... can do silent installs?

    Ok I have tested it and it works :hug2: But I'm not a fan of running it in the background :p so I have de installed it and the watermark is back ;) I guess that means it does not alter any sytem files ! Keep up the good work painter :clap:

    After installing uwd the taskbar stops auto-hiding even though it is set to auto-hide. The taskbar just stays up on the desktop all the time. Don't remember if it was immediately after installing uwd. I might have been after a system restart.
