Windows 7: Virtual desktop in 7...

Will work ... can any one tell me if this option is available and how to install and work.

I mean manage multiple desktop in windows 7?

Built in? - No, third party software may or may not work, try it

3D Virtual Desktop
Try this thread... Maybe this is what you mean...

you mean a virtual desktop, i think i know what you mean, i'm doing some research myself on this. i'll get back to you if i get one working nicely.

okay, suprisingly, 'virtual dimesion' 0.94, latest update was in 2005
actually works on windows 7 quite well and has unlimited 'virtual desktop' support.
go figure, if any-one can find something better, post it here, but yeah.
Virtual Dimension is the link to it.
tested on windows 7 ultimate 32bit build 7068.

I think the lack of a powerful shell like bash in Linux, built in ssh functionality and the lack of virtual desktops are huge glaring omissions in Windows 7.

I am truly surprised esp about the virtual desktops. I dont see how that can be a problem any more for Microsoft especially considering the whole desktop experience is now being rendered in the graphics card.

I used Vista/XP Virtual Desktop Manager - Home on my build, everything runs fine. I haven't used it recently though.

Eats up like 300 megs though =/

I tried Crystal Desktop. Works well... Besides it has visual effects like in Windows 7) CRYSTAL DESKTOP :: The Best Windows Virtual Desktop Manager. Multi Desktop Switcher.

the villige idiot must ask. does that do the same thing as VMware does? or just for running another instance of explorer? (i think i worded that right)

They mean having mutiple desktops...having windows opened on one desktop and another desktop doing something and so on...
