DeskOnTop, Your Desktop to Click on Windows


It turns out that I at the end of the day I open hundreds of windows, many of them do not close until they shut down the PC because in most cases the switch back to use throughout the day. If we add to this that I most things to keep the hair on the desktop, because I am a disaster, which sometimes makes working with the computer is a hell for me.


Whenever I want to access a file or shortcut on the desktop that I have to minimize windows or through key Windows D, either in the traditional way. Another option is a Cree Deskbar inside the bar beginning, but that alone I list all I have on the desktop, but DeskOnTop go a bit further.





Once installed it will show us a small icon on the taskbar that when they pressed the right button we'll see a small version of our desktop, with all the icons in the same position in which we find on the desktop Real. Clicking on any one of us open, whether a file, a shortcut or folder.


However, pressing the right button will show us all that we have icons on the desktop in a list ordered by date of creation or modification. Among his options are to change for example trigger to start when you boot the system or showing or not a wallpaper in the escalation of our desktop version.


I have found an option quite interesting because it also does not charge too much memory and, at least to me, I think what is more useful. DeskOnTop is completely free, is in English and works with Windows.
