MoveToDesktop Description
As we are sure you know, Windows 10 enables you to simultaneously work with multiple desktops. As expected, Windows also offers you the option to move active apps and windows from one desktop to another.
This can be achieved by just dragging and dropping the active windows from its current place onto the small thumbnail that represents another desktop.
While it may look cool thanks to a smooth transition effect and it may be fast enough for the broad majority of users out there, some people that need to move tens of apps from one desktop to another will surely desire a more streamlined method.
Send apps from one desktop to another with just two clicks
Thankfully, there is a better and faster way to move active apps between desktops in Windows 10 with the help of a minuscule app, appropriately named MoveToDesktop.
Before anything, you should be aware of the fact that Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio might be required in order to run this small utility. The app does not require installation and it does not come with a proper user interface.
Create new desktops and send apps to different desktops from the status bar contextual menu
Simply unzip the package and launch the app and, from this point forward, you should get a new seamlessly integrated “Move To” field in the system contextual menu.
Therefore, by right-clicking any app’s status menu, you can quickly move it to another desktop without having to activate the Windows 10 “flip 3D” feature.
It is worth mentioning that with the help of this lightweight piece of software you can also create new desktops with no more than a few mouse clicks.
It will probably never get in the limelight, but some users will surely appreciate it
While hardly an impressive utility, MoveToDesktop is one of those apps that might make your experience with Windows 10 a bit better.
If you are the type of user that regularly works with multiple desktops and moving the apps from one place to another with the classic drag and drop method seems a bit too time-consuming, then MoveToDesktop is definitely worthy of your attention.
