Tech Tip of the Week: Windows Virtual Desktop

Did you know that you can create separate desktops on your Windows computer? This feature allows you to have a workspace you can set up for work, another that can be organized for school, and another for leisure. All on the same computer!

You can do this by creating multiple desktops that you can then switch between that can help organize your open windows and applications.

    • By default, you will only have one desktop. To add a new desktop, go to “Task View” on your taskbar at the bottom of your screen.
    • Once you have opened Task View, you can add a new desktop by selecting “New Desktop” in the top left.
    • You will then have created a new desktop and can navigate between desktops by going back to Task View and selecting your desired desktop in the top left.
    • You can also close a desktop while in Task view by selecting the X on top of the specific desktop.
