Uuups, sometimes we are looking for a way to do simple things and do not remeber how easy it was.
Question: How can one hide/show the start icon in taskbar of Windows Mobile 6.1 (and before)?

Here is a C# example for SHFullScreen usage.

For whatever reason MS decided to make Windows 2012 RDS (former Terminal Services, now Remote Desktop Services) not compatible with Windows Mobile 6.x and other Windows CE 5.0 based handheld devices.

But let start at the beginning.

Did you know you can launch ctlpnl.exe to open a defined applet directly?
OK, here we go:
ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,26
will open the Wireless Manager. You can use that in a .lnk file if you need a direct option to launch ctlpnl.exe with a specific applet:
255#"\windows\ctlpnl.exe" cplmain.cpl,26
REMEMBER: do NOT add a newline in the .lnk ASCII file!
Here is a list of know arguments:
