DesktopOK v5.46 Updated
billon on 18 Jul 2018 Change history
- 388KB (uncompressed)
- Released on 18 Jul 2018
- Suggested by JohnW
DesktopOK contains a host of beneficial Windows interface tweaks. The program can save the current icon view by resolution and make it easy to swap between views, showing all saved view formats in a list. Other tools include basic screenshots, the ability to force-close programs, color tool, volume and more:
- Interface tools include reducing clutter with a minimize-to-tray by right clicking on a window close button, mouse hiding and ability to hide desktop icons after a period of inactivity (click on the desktop to make them re-appear). You can even modify default icon spacing.
- Window management tools include scrolling any window that your mouse hovers over (not just what's in focus) and alt+drag (for moving windows without having to hold your cursor over the top bar).

I still use & really like this program now using Windoze 10. I'm anal about my Desktop icons arrangement, and this program makes it so easy to line them up just as I want. Thanks to the maker for a program that I have used for a very long time across many different operating systems. Has always been flawless for me :)

It would be even better if DesktopOK didn't force an icon rearrangement with every resolution change -- in my laptop, a lot of those are temporary, resulting from user logon or the machine coming out of sleep state before, rerouting graphics to my higher resolution external screen. After some time it's galling to have to restore icon arrangement after every such hiccup. I've gone through all settings several times but up to now have been unable to disable this behavior.

I used Folders Popup before and now switched to Quick Access Popup due to the active development. QAP is a very handy tool to save time navigating through your file structure. My middle mouse button is now a productive one. I can really recommend this one!

It is very similar to Quick Cliq.

Overall this is an okay program not as good as Quick Cliq IMO and experience. Which is the main reason I wanted to comment as it is still being developed a new version came out 04/16/2018 that fixed a lot of Windows 10 issues. Personally speaking I also really don't like the donation bullying in QAP. I don't mind some well placed donation buttons especially in editors windows..etc but a perma-link in the main menu just leaves a bad impression on me. |
