Hi all, been using this site for awile, and after some advice.
Is there a way to turn wedgits on/off temporary, like if I went in to task bar setting and move the side disable/enabled, via power shell or command line?

What I'm looking to do is disable the left taskbar icon, then kill the task wedgits.exe. then revert changes.
I can kill wedgits.exe but hovering over the left icon on the taskbar restarts wedgits.exe.
