- dahdum 4y agoWin10+ has virtual desktops built in, before that I used the SysInternals Desktops utility. To get Alt-1,2,3,4 working I use AutoHotKey. I can’t recall which script I use (been ages since I changed it) but it works like this one with some edits for keys. https://github.com/pmb6tz/windows-desktop-switcher https://github.com/pmb6tz/windows-desktop-switcher For windows I definitely recommend also installing PowerToys. You can set up different snap grids for each desktop. Keeps things tidy with no overlapping windows. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/ https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/
- Jarwain 4y agoYeah I used to use W10's virtual desktops; I got tired of having to reconfigure the desktops every time I rebooted the laptop. Big fan of powertoys, although I keep forgetting all the tools it has to utilize though xP I'll hafta see if they've updated it, and look into fancy zones. They look like the tiling manager I've always wanted in windows
- nickjj 4y agohttps://dexpot.de/?lang=en https://dexpot.de/?lang=en is really good. It has hotkey support and pretty much everything you can ask for to quickly manage and switch between desktops and toggle common window attributes like "always on top".
