Solve window clutter and access desktop easily. To launch a shortcut from your desktop simply click DESKonTOP icon near the system clock, and access a small copy of your desktop with all shortcuts.
How many application windows do you have open during your typical computer work? If it's just one, you may stop reading at this point. If, however, you do have a clutter of windows on your computer desktop - go no further, you've just found the solution!

Windows offers a convenient way to access applications and documents you use often by placing shortcuts to your computer desktop. These shortcuts are fast to click, but what if you have a window or two on top of your desktop? Minimizing or moving around an active window to access your desktop may seem a good solution for a while, but what if you work with more than just one or two applications? Those shortcut icons are covered well enough to make you spend a while to minimize or move away every window that blocks desktop access.

OK, maybe desktop shortcuts are not that great an idea after all. Let's open that same shortcut from the Windows Start menu! Click Start, select All Programs, and locate the application you were looking for. Slow, isn't it? I told you.

Wait, here's the Show Desktop button! Let's click it! Great, you can see the desktop and start your shortcut. Fast? Yeah! But hey, where are your windows? Those multiple applications you were using for work? They're minimized. Let's try the Desktop button once again... nope. It minimized the window you've just opened. It only worked until you actually started the shortcut. To restore your other windows, see the beginning of this article - minimize, minimize, minimize, and restore, restore, restore. Slow and boring.
