It allows you to maintain up to 4 different desktops, each with it`s own applications and desktop wallpapers. It integrates into the taskbar and allows you to quickly switch between your virtual desktops. You can also assign keyboard hotkeys to switch between or preview all 4 desktops at once. For example, you can open your e-mail program on one desktop, an Internet chess game on the second, several Internet sessions on the third, and multiple database sessions on the fourth.	metla (154)

Sorry i cant be more presice but its been awhile since i played with powertoys(ouch!),someone will come along with a more clearcut answer sooner or later.	metla (154)

Then click on Virtual Desktop Manager just like you are installing it. Then watch for the Uninstall option. Click on it and the Virtual Desktop will be uninstalled. Wayne.....	wlwever (6294)
