Desktops is a very practical virtual desktop program. It was developed by Microsoft, so you don’t need to worry too much about compatibility. Personally, I really like using Desktops, because Desktops can open up to 4 windows at once, and the computer doesn’t slow down much. That means you can quietly write a report while chatting on instant messaging! Also, Desktops doesn’t need to be installed, so you can put it on a USB flash drive and use it anywhere.
Update (12/12): Lately, something called a boss key has become very popular. Desktops can also work as a boss key program. A boss key is a shortcut that hides whatever you shouldn’t let your boss see when he walks over to check on your work. So Desktops is also a great fit as a boss key.
You might not know what a virtual desktop is. Simply put, multiple desktops let you open several desktops on the same computer. The principle is that it just adds a few more explorer.exe processes. Since explorer.exe handles desktop-related information, all you have to do is control explorer.exe to add more desktops. Still don't understand? Then download Desktops and give it a try!
