This is the Virtual Desktop Manager for computers where STABILITY, POWER, PRODUCTIVITY and SUPPORT are IMPORTANT!
XDESK is a very powerful & stable Virtual Desktop Manager / Desktop Assistant. Main features are:
- QuickView
- up to 10 virtual desktops with separate settings including separate icons on each desktop, together with a smart interface (like a TaskMenu or under NT even a better Alt+Tab) so that you are not going to lose your applications on that huge space;
- fully automated install, uninstall or upgrade in a package under 900 Kbytes;
- powerful temporary or permanent rules that allow grouping programs on desktops in your personal way;
- small and non-intrusive but powerful AppBar;
- Reminders (something like a "sticky note") & Alarms (that can now even start another program);
- reliable CPU meter under both NT and 95/98 - so that you will know when something is "taking over" your computer;
- Applications AutoRestart (like saving all your desktops WITH the applications running there!);
- Memory Cleaner;
- powerful TaskList so you can take control of all the windows and processes on your system;
- windows roll-up;
- HotKeys, HotMouse, Mouse-Scrolling, Mouse-Knocking and now HotCorners (to quickly activate or disable your screen-saver)!What is more important is that the registration comes with 12 months of FREE upgrades and FREE technical support (email-based).
There are two XDESK versions, a more complex version that is being sold as shareware (you can try it for 30 days but it will expire after that and if you decide to keep it you have to register) and a more basic version that is free for personal use (and will never expire).
XDESK now also has TileView / TopView - a new feature that will let you see 'side by side' scaled-down representations from all programs for easier navigation when you have a lot of open windows!
