  1. Reorder and customize Virtual Desktops


    According to this article virtual desktops under Win10 Build 21337 should allow customization of the virtual desktops, Now i am running Build 19044.1826 and i have no idea how to get the update but i sure as hell cannot alter anything to make them stand out. What can i do to get this option? Cheers!Regards, Erwin

  3. Cannot reorder "Desktop" in Quick Access

    I have a brand new PC with Windows 10 pro (17763).

    I can pin Desktop to Quick Access but I cannot drag and drop it to reorder it.

    I can drag and drop every other items in the list one by one (Documents, Downloads and some folders) to move Desktop all the way to the top.

    After a while, Desktop would move all the way to the bottom, by itself.

    Anyone experienced the same thing?

    Virtual desktops

    In the article you linked it says talks about 4 goals Microsoft has with virtual desktops:

    • Give you more desktop space to group related windows
    • Help you quickly locate and switch to any window or group of windows
    • Let you easily re-organize your groups and move windows as tasks evolve
    • Keep you in control of the degree of separation between your grouped windows
    Not being able to control what desktop the program opens on really doesn't fit in with these goals.

    Give me one good reason for why it is suppose force me to change virtual desktop when I open a program, just one good reason and I will consider to drop the issue. To me this sounds like virtual desktops isn't ready yet and you refuse to acknowledge that
    there are bugs, because this makes it very hard to work with multiply virtual desktops.
