Windows 10 virtual desktop tracker with tasktray numerical icon and custom backgrounds.
When using Windows 10’s virtual desktops feature, there’s no way to tell at a glance which virtual desktop you’re currently on.
This utility program shows a tasktray icon tracking the current virtual desktop number.
Initially the icon will display “0,” meaning no virtual desktops are in use. When the user creates and switches to an alternate desktop, the original desktop will be designated “1” instead of “0” and the new desktop will be “2,” and so on. The program tracks up to 9 concurrent virtual desktops.
You can also manually set individual desktop background images per virtual desktop via an INI-file.
Put VDTracker.exe somewhere, create a shortcut to it, open a file explorer with ‘shell:startup’ and drop the shortcut in there so the program starts as boot.
