Native Dock - Modern Dock for Windows 11

Install

  1. Download NativeDock.exe below.
  2. Install the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime (x64) if you don't already have it.
  3. Run it. The dock picks up the apps already pinned to your taskbar.

Windows may warn about an unrecognized app, since the exe isn't code-signed. Choose More info, then Run anyway.

What's new

  • The dock stays on top of browsers, Explorer, and other windows.
  • Icon right-click menus match the dock, with pin/unpin, close, and End task.
  • A live transparency slider in Settings. Off is the original solid look; the slider thins it from there.
  • Fresh installs start with a tighter default: 40 px icons, 1.50× magnification, rounder corners, and a light 3% transparency.

Runs on Windows 11 x64, on your primary display. To quit, open Settings from the dock and choose Quit NativeDock.
