Hi there!

I've been having such a difficult time using virtual desktops that I'm starting to think it's better to just have two computers. I'm currently using Dexpot which is buggy at the best of times, horrible at the worse of times and I've tried Actual Tools and sufficient to say, neither of these (or the others I've tried) seem to work the way I want them to.

I'm also on Windows 10, which is probably the entire reason why none of these are working properly. I've only had one issue with DisplayFusion, which was quickly solved, but it also makes me wonder if DisplayFusion has a virtual desktop program or someone is using a VDP that actually works with both DF and W10.

It's really maddening that I can't seem to find a program to do simple things (or maybe these things are just too complicated and there IS no program that actually works like this):

1. keep desktops separate. If I'm working on one, nothing on the others interferes unless I go on that desktop.

Actually, that's really all I want - everything else is under this umbrella. If I open the start menu on say my work virtual dekstop, I don't get thrown back to my home virtual desktop (which happens constantly with Dexpot); if I open a program on say my home virtual desktop, I'm not thrown on to my work virtual desktop.

Is there such a thing now? And if not, would there be a possibility that DisplayFusion could create something? Especially that would work with DisplayFusion? :| ???

I'll second this question. I know that multiple virtual desktops is difficult but even more so when there are multiple monitors.

Is it possible for DF to pick up the gauntlet and do Virtual Desktops correctly instead of relying on Microsoft's often buggy implementation? I'm guessing it is a very big lift and perhaps for not much benefit to 90% of the users.

It is on our feature request list, but I'm not sure if/when we will implement it. In the the meantime, have you tried Better Desktop Tool? I don't have much experience with it, but it's another virtual desktops option.
