  1. Startup Apps in Designated Virtual Desktops


    I was wondering if it is possible if I can have specific programs launched at startup , and have them placed on a second virtual desktop.

    Specifically, when my windows 10 boots, I'd like for my Viber and Telegram to share one-half each of virtual desktop 1, my browser on virtual desktop 2 in full screen, virtual desktops 3 and 4 without apps, and virtual desktop 5 with Spotify in full screen mode.

    Please excuse the specificity of the effect I'd like to achieve. Thought that I might as well get all help I can get.

    Best


    :)

  2. Startup items to specific virtual desktop

    Hi,

    Please answer the below question to assist you better.

    Are you referring to task view feature "Multiple desktops" in Windows 10?

    If yes, please be informed that you cannot have apps/programs automatically startup in different desktops.

    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/multiple-desktops-in-windows-10#

    If you open a lot of programs at once, this feature allows you to keep them organized.

    i.e., you can move apps between multiple desktops. Once you restart/sign-out, the applications on all these desktops will be closed. The opened files/programs will be closed.

    You may provide your suggestions in the feedback app.

    It will be directly referred by our developer’s team for further improvement.

    Follow the steps:

    • Go to Start, enter the phrase Windows Feedback, and then select Windows Feedback.
    • See if someone else has given similar feedback by entering the topic, such as Microsoft Music.
    • If you find similar feedback, select it, add any details, and then select Me too.
    • To narrow your search to a specific category, pick the category that most closely matches your feedback (so it gets to the right people quickly). For example, for feedback about the Music app, select Apps > Music.
    • If you don’t find any similar feedback, select New Feedback, and choose a topic from Select a category and then select a subcategory.
    • Enter your feedback (the more details the better!), add a screenshot if you can, and you're done.
    Hope the information helps, do reply if you need further assistance.

    Thank you.

    Virtual Desktops showing apps not in certain desktops

    Hi, I have a problem with W10 virtual desktops.

    I'll explain it step by step :

    Go to virtual desktop 1
    Open full windowed Chrome
    Go to virtual desktop 2
    Open two different full windowed excels
    Hit windows-tab

    And you end up in this mess i'm attaching as a screenshot.

    If you click on destktop 3 icon, you'll be there, but excel will be shown, full windowed, as if you were on desktop 2.
    If you then minimize it, it goes to the desktop 2 taskbar.


    If you click on desktop 1 icon, you'll get there, but excels will be shown instead of Chrome. If you put the mouse over desktop 1 icon and then click Chrome above virtual desktops, you'll get to desktop 1 with Chrome being shown as normal.

    If you close one of the two excels, virtual desktops works again as expected.

    What can I test to solve this mess?

    Thanx a lot, I've been expecting a fix in every new compilation, with no luck.

    César
