Same Application On Multiple Virtual Desktops?

Apr 4, 2016

Is it possible to have a single application, for example Outlook, appear on multiple virtual desktops? I use different desktops to separate the opened windows for multiple clients. However, something like Outlook would be applicable to all clients.

Virtual Desktops - Apps Don't Run As Single Instances

Oct 3, 2014

Virtual desktops but IMO shouldn't each desktop run an application unaware that another instance might be running on another desktop. The OS itself can keep track of shared storage areas etc so we aren't talking here about running separate virtual machines.

What I'm thinking of as an example is say I'm running EXCEL on VD1 and I'm downloading data from the web. On VD2 I should be able to start another instance of EXCEL and download data from another website.

BOTH applications should still run irrespective of which desktop is the active one. I get the impression that the NON active desktops don't still continue to run processes in the background if they are essentially a "shared process" like EXCEL.

Performance :: Virtual Desktops Animations Are Slow

Jan 13, 2016

I have a powerful laptop with Windows 10 Pro installed :
CPU : i7-4712HQ @2.3GhzRAM : 16 GBVideo : Nvidia GeForce GT 750M

When I switch between virtual desktops the animations are pretty laggy, which it's kinda weird, because on my Surface 3 Pro which is a low weaker than this laptop the animations are very smooth.

PS : Animation is not so slow, but it has some lag. I also have in the Intel and Nvidia Graphics all set up to high performance.

Opening Edge In Multiple Desktops

Nov 8, 2015

I have a question regarding Edge in Windows 10 with respect to "multiple desk tops".

Ive noticed that after opening a web site with Edge in the first desktop and then adding a second desktop (+,) that when I try to open a different website in desktop #2 WITH EDGE, it reverts back to the first desktop and wont allow you to open it in the second desk top as long as you are using Edge in desktop #2 after using Edge in desktop #1.

I'm not sure why this is the case, but I would imagine that quite a few people would like to be able to open websites on different desk tops using Edge in both. I don't think this can be done by simply creating a second desktop and trying to open a website with Edge after using Edge in desk top #1.

You can move a website using Edge in Desktop #1 to Desktop #2 (using Edge as well) by dragging and dropping from desktop #1 to desktop #2. This is fine, but I think it would be a lot better to be able to open a website directly in desk top #2 using Edge rather than having to drag and drop from desktop #1.

Multiple Desktops (Task View) And Opening Applications

Sep 22, 2015

Say I have a desktop 1 with MS Word open. If I then open another desktop (desktop 2), and then open a word file from my hard drive on desktop 2, windows 10 will take me out of desktop 2, put be back on desktop 1, and then open the file I requested. I then have to open the desktop switcher, and manually drag the word document from desktop 1 to desktop 2.

Effectively, if I have a window of one application open in one desktop, and I then open the same application in a different desktop, windows will move me back to the original desktop and open the application there.

This is extremely annoying and occurs with all applications, is there any way to fix it?

Controlling When Application Is Displayed Using Multiple Monitors?

Oct 2, 2015

I am running Widows 10 Pro, 64-bit with 3 monitors using an Nvidia GeForce GTX 780 Ti graphics card and have an Intel 7i-4930K CPU with 32 gig of RAM. For the Taskbar and Start Menu Properties I have it configured so that it shows all taskbars on all displays.

The behavior that currently exists is that if I launch an application from any monitor it opens on the one it was last open on. For example, if I have Notepad open on monitor 3, close it, launch the application from monitor 1 it actually opens on monitor 3.

The behavior I would like is for the application to open on the monitor I launch it from. For example, if I have Notepad open on monitor 3, close it, launch the application on monitor 1 it is displayed on monitor 1. It would be wonderful if I could launch Notepad on monitor 1 and have it display there, launch Notepad on monitor 2 and have it display there and finally launch Notepad on monitor 3 and have it display there.

Is this possible and/or a setting I just am not aware of in Windows 10? Granted, Notepad is not the most exciting application but it was just an example.

Performance :: Sticky App To All Desktops?

Jan 4, 2016

Basically, I want to have this one application window appear on all desktops. I'd like to be able to do it without having to pay for other software to achieve this. (DisplayFusion will do it, but for a fee of $25. And I really don't want to run another process and pay for the use of just one feature.)

Apps Pause In Other Desktops

Jan 10, 2016

I like to hear some music in background while I'm working, like everyone does. So I fire off some playlist on youtube in some browser and put that browser in its own desktop. But recently I stumbled upon PerfectTube (check it out here [URL] .... ).

So instead of a browser I began to use PerfectTube but it seems that the App works as long as I'm in the same virtual desktop as the App is, if we switch the desktop the playback pauses( in some seconds). I first thought it was something to do with the App, so I tried other Apps, even they seem to suspend when in some other desktop.

Is there a way, a registry hack or some toggle I missed, to let the apps remain alive even when present in an other desktop. There seems to be no such problem with desktop applications like wmp or vlc.

Should Change User Accounts To Desktops?

Nov 8, 2015

Possibly in Windows XP when it was installed, in order to have several desktops, dealing with various subjects, I simply created a whole bunch of User Accounts. So, I changed user accounts to get to the desktop I wanted.

Now that I have Windows10, is there an advantage to using the New Desktop feature? I'd just have one user account then.

I'm using Fences to sort my desktops.

Also, my data, which shows up in my desktops is stored on a separate partition from C drive.

Customization :: Different Shortcut Icons On Different Desktops?

Aug 5, 2015

Is it possible to place different sets of icons on different desktop ? For example, having desktop 1 empty, desktop 2 full of files, desktop 3 with shortcuts to programmes/games, etc. Also is there a way to have a different wallpaper on each desktop, to tell them apart faster ?

My guess is all of that is not possible, given that additional desktops are not supposed to be "permanent", but rather added/deleted quickly. But maybe with a bit of tweaking ?

Drivers/Hardware :: New HDD Won't Show As Initialized With Desktops

Dec 24, 2015

My intention of using the HDD is to have it "mobile" and move it from my W7 desktop, W10 laptop, W10 insider and W10 RTM machines for storing images etc. It work's as expected when connected to W7 and my W10 laptop. It will not however work with either of my W10 desktop machines. i.e. When connected, it says the disk must be initialized before it can be recognized. I am using usb type connections, but I am guessing? Initializing will render the data on there now as useless?

Virtual Key Stuck Down Even If Keyboard Is Unplugged

Aug 21, 2015

I am periodically experiencing an issue where the o button starts typing itself continuously until I either restart or lock the PC. It's not a keyboard issue, since it happens whether the keyboard is plugged in or not, even with a different keyboard.

I haven't yet found a way of triggering it, but once it starts, it happens quite often after each time I stop it.

Move Windows From One Virtual Desktop To Another

Aug 24, 2015

This seems to be a tedious process of going to the task view, then finding the window and right clicking and sending it to another desktop.

Is there something simpler? I was expecting a right click on the taskbar would give this option, but it does not. Is there a keyboard shortcut perhaps?
