    Flash Desktop Name when switching desktops


    Can MS enhance their Desktop naming feature to flash the desktop name when switching desktops Windows+Ctrl+Arrow ? It seems really strange to provide a feature to name the desktop but the only way to ever see that desktop name is to click on the desktop switching icon in the taskbar.

      Uninstall.
    • Restart the computer.
    • Right-click your computer name in Device Manager and click Scan for hardware changes.
      Device manager scans your system and automatically reinstalls your device.
