RoundedTB

Customize your Windows taskbar with rounded docks

RoundedTB is a free personalization utility for Windows users who want more control over the look of the taskbar without digging into complex system tweaks. Its main purpose is simple: let you reshape the taskbar by adjusting its spacing and corner roundness, giving the desktop a cleaner, more customized appearance.

The app centers on a compact, easy-to-understand interface. You can change the taskbar’s margins on each edge, then use a radius control to decide whether the corners should look slightly softened or strongly rounded. This makes it useful for people who want a subtle visual change as well as those aiming for a more dock-like desktop layout.

One of RoundedTB’s more interesting options is Dynamic Mode. Instead of keeping the taskbar as one long bar, it can separate pinned apps from the system tray area, creating the impression of distinct docks. Advanced options add more control, including independent margin settings, system tray visibility choices, and fill taskbar behavior that can expand the taskbar under certain conditions for a more unified look.

Windows 10 users are not left out completely, thanks to Split Mode, which is intended to mimic the separated dock effect. There is also optional compatibility with TranslucentTB for users who already rely on that tool for additional visual styling.

The main drawback is that Dynamic Mode is not fully polished. Some changes may not apply reliably, auto-hide behavior can be inconsistent, and minor visual issues may appear. For users who need a perfectly predictable taskbar at all times, these quirks are worth considering.

Overall, RoundedTB is best suited to Windows 11 users who enjoy desktop customization and want a friendlier way to refine the taskbar’s shape and layout. It is not essential, but it is a practical and approachable tool for making Windows feel more personal.
