Tech Tip - How To Streamline Your Workflow with Virtual Desktops

Virtual Desktops in Windows are a good way to extend your workspace without needing multiple monitors and can be useful for separating different types of tasks or projects to keep your workflow organised. Here's how they work:

- Press Win + Tab to open Task View.

- Click on “New desktop,” which appears at the top of the screen, to create a new virtual desktop.

- You can switch between desktops using Win + Ctrl + Left Arrow or Win + Ctrl + Right Arrow.

- Drag and drop windows from your main desktop to any virtual desktop to organise your tasks better.

- Right-click on windows in Task View to move them or open new apps directly on any desktop.
