I’ve been using the German authored Dexpot 1.4 for several weeks now and much prefer it to other available options. How would you use this free software?  Let me count the ways. If you often use multiple applications simultaneously, you know that your one (or two, or three) monitors can quickly become cluttered. Time is wasted as you move from one app to another, clicking task bar tabs and resetting screen positions. With Dexpot you can have all your programs running (if you have enough installed memory) and access them by switching “desktops”.

Example:  Let’s say you are already using one monitor. You have your Firefox browser on one screen and Outlook is minimized.  With the click of a monitor icon (see below)

you can switch to reveal another desktop where you have a Word document ready to reference if you receive an expected phone call. A Photoshop layout is on desktop number 3, and it remains in position as you left it. Click a fourth icon and you can switch to a desktop with an Excel spreadsheet. If you receive the expected phone call while working in Excel, there will be no need to fumble as you try to access your Word documents. Simply switch to your number two virtual desktop. Bingo, you’re there.  

You can easily move or copy applications from one virtual desktop to another. You also have great flexibility for configuring the setup as you wish. 

Sehr gut Dexpot.
