How to create four Desktops screens in single screen of Windows XP


Creating four Desktops in a single screen or splitting your desktop into four different windows screen is a very tricky  as well as very useful thing to do, if you are a Windows XP user. With the help of this nice Trick, you can enhance your Windows performance and can treat yourself like a Linux user. Only Linux provide the facilities to switch between the desktops for its users. If I frankly speak, then the number of Linux user is not as much large as Windows user. Although, Linux provide a bunch of great features and high security levels to its user, but the main thing with Linux is, it is not user friendly as Windows. A normal computer operate cannot handle a Linux running system because Linux needs commands to do a task ( Like DOS do in Windows ). So, the thing which I want to do is, I want to give a feel of Linux to all my Windows users, who never operated Linux or who do not know how to operate Linux.

  • First, download a copy of the Virtual Desktop Manager from the Windows XP PowerToys Web site, located at  “http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/windows-xp “. Install it.
  • After installing the Power Toy, you have to unlock the taskbar so that you can place the Virtual Desktop Manager on it.
  • Once you have unlocked your taskbar, right click the taskbar, in the general location that you want the Virtual Desktop Manager to appear, and select Toolbars and then Desktop Manager.




  • Now you have your Virtual Desktop Manager  on your taskbar, customize it as you want. Customizing background for different desktops can be a good thing to do because after this, you can easily determine which one you are on. To do this, right click the Virtual Desktop toolbar and select Configure Desktop Images.
  • Another feature of Virtual Desktop Manager is shared desktop feature. By using this feature, a user can use the same taskbar in all four different Windows. But, if you disabling it, then you will find a new taskbar for every new Windows.
  • If you are using a Large monitor screen then you may have some problem with its animation because in large Screen it doesn’t work properly. But you can disable it to come out of this problem. To doing this, right click the Virtual Desktop Manager and select Use Animation.
