A) Some people have said Multiple Desktops & Task View is silly or unnecessary or 'geeky' when I suggested it could be put to good use.
B) Windows 10 allows some funky snapping. 1/2 screen or 1/4 screen. And everything 'floats' & is sizable.
Well, it is becomes bloody neat when you combine A & B! Hypothetically, let's say you have 4 things that make some kind of logical sense together... and it's nice to see them all simultaneously.
Grab one Desktop & snap the 4 of them in it. IDK, maybe Outlook, Skype, Calendar & Maps or something (your office)
Now, another Desktop just has a tabbed browser, w/ some related sites (some special interest group).
One has your Home page & some misc. sites & the Weather APP (just examples)
And another w/ some other related sites in a tabbed browser, plus a couple APPs that are akin to them or those.
Well, it does become VERY cool, clean, slick & quite tidy & organised when they can all exist, each very different, each staying as configured & intact as you switch to whatever you want.
AND you can, still, use Alt-Tab or hover across the Taskbar to pick something.
Anyway, combine Snap & Multiple Desktops in Windows 10 and things can be darn, clever, creative & convenient... @ least that's what I think.
Cheers,

The combination of Snap and Multiple Desktops in Windows 10 offers a powerful way to organize tasks and increase productivity. Here are some key points to consider: 1. Organization: Using different desktops for specific tasks helps keep related applications and windows together. This can reduce clutter and make it easier to focus on individual projects. 2. Efficiency: Snap allows for quick resizing and arrangement of windows, making it easier to compare information and work across multiple apps simultaneously. This can enhance multitasking capabilities. 3. Productivity: By carefully segmenting tasks into different desktops, users can effectively switch between projects without losing the current state of their windows, improving workflow efficiency. 4. Personalization: Each desktop can be customized to suit specific needs, whether it's work-related apps, browsing tabs, or entertainment options, allowing for a tailored desktop experience. 5. Ease of Access: The ability to switch between desktops or use Alt-Tab to navigate open windows provides a seamless experience, enhancing user control and reducing time spent on task-switching. By leveraging these functionalities, users can create a more organized and efficient workspace, tailoring their desktop experience to suit their specific workflows and preferences. It's a great way to manage tasks, improve focus, and optimize productivity.
