在Windows 10(Windows 10)中使用多个虚拟桌面可帮助您更好地组织任务,让您在专注于特定活动的同时避免混乱和分心。您可以将当前工作项目所需的应用程序分组到一个虚拟桌面上,在另一个虚拟桌面上打开您的邮件和社交媒体,并在第三个桌面上计划您即将到来的假期。如果您不断尝试在Windows 10(Windows 10)中打开过多的应用程序中寻找出路,多个桌面可以让您的生活更轻松,让您可以在同一屏幕上操作多个虚拟工作区。本教程说明了有关在Windows 10(Windows 10)中使用多个虚拟桌面以更轻松地进行多任务处理并提高工作效率所需了解的所有信息:
注意:(NOTE:)提供的功能在Windows 2020 年 5 月 10 日更新(Windows 10 May 2020 Update)或更新版本中可用。如果您使用的是旧版本的Windows 10,您可能无法访问所有功能。检查您的 Windows 10 版本(Check your Windows 10 build),并在必要时获取可用的最新 Windows 10 更新(latest Windows 10 update)。
如何在Windows 10中访问虚拟桌面(Windows 10)
Windows 10 引入了虚拟桌面作为任务视图(Task View)功能的一部分。访问任务视图(Task View)有多种方法,我们将在教程中介绍所有这些方法和更多方法:什么是 Windows 10 中的任务视图以及如何使用它(What is Task View in Windows 10 and how to use it)。我们发现使用键盘上的Windows + Tab快捷方式打开任务视图(Task View)并访问Windows 10中的虚拟桌面是最简单的方法。
如何在Windows 10中创建新桌面(Windows 10)
当您打开任务视图(Task View)时,屏幕会变暗,显示所有打开的应用程序窗口的预览。要创建其他桌面,请单击或点击任务视图(Task View)屏幕左上角的"+ New desktop"
注意:(NOTE:)如果您改为在任务视图(Task View)中向下滚动,您可以看到时间线(Timeline)-过去 30 天您在连接到您的Microsoft帐户的所有设备上的活动日志。(Microsoft)有关更多详细信息,请阅读我们关于Windows 10 时间轴(Windows 10 Timeline)的教程。
默认情况下,当创建一个新的虚拟环境时,您当前的桌面及其打开的应用程序窗口将变为Desktop 1,新的桌面名为Desktop 2。Windows 10 在任务视图(Task View)屏幕顶部的栏中显示所有可用虚拟桌面的预览。
要创建另一个虚拟桌面,请单击或点击顶部略有不同的"+ New desktop"按钮。新(New)桌面总是添加到右侧。
无论哪个"+ New desktop"任务视图(Task View)中打开的应用程序窗口上继续按住鼠标按钮(或按住触摸屏)来抓取它。"+ New desktop"按钮的顶部,并在应用程序变小且按钮突出显示时通过释放按钮(或将手指从屏幕上移开)放下应用程序窗口。
这将创建一个新桌面,您移动的应用程序是唯一打开的窗口。您可以通过首先右键单击或按住应用程序窗口打开上下文菜单,然后按Move to和New desktop来获得相同的结果。
或者,您可以在任何屏幕上使用键盘快捷键Ctrl + Windows + DWindows 10中创建新的虚拟桌面。
创建后,即使重新启动Windows 10(Windows 10)计算机或设备,虚拟桌面仍然存在。您可以根据需要创建任意数量的虚拟桌面,并在每个虚拟桌面上使用相关的应用程序窗口传播不同的项目。但是,请记住,创建太多可能会破坏在Windows 10中使事情变得更简单的目的。
如何在Windows 10中重命名虚拟桌面(Windows 10)
最近对Windows 10虚拟桌面的升级是能够根据需要重命名每个虚拟桌面。这是个好消息,因为我们不太喜欢使用通用名称Desktop 1、Desktop 2等,这通常使我们很难找到我们正在寻找的桌面。
要重命名虚拟桌面,最简单的方法是在任务视图(Task View)屏幕中单击或点击其名称。
或者,您也可以右键单击或按住显示的任何虚拟桌面,然后选择重命名(Rename)。
您现在可以编辑名称字段。输入(Type)表示您计划在该虚拟桌面上进行的活动的名称。虚拟桌面名称最多可以使用 50 个字符。
您可能已经注意到,我的第一个桌面上已经打开了很多Digital Citizen窗口,因此我选择将其重命名为(Digital Citizen)Work。插入新名称后,按Enter或单击或点击屏幕上的任意位置以保存更改。
您可以在Windows 10(Windows 10)中创建多个桌面,并根据它们相关的项目或应用重命名每个桌面,如下所示。
如何在Windows 10中的虚拟桌面之间切换(Windows 10)
新桌面为您希望在Windows 10中关注的任何活动提供了新的虚拟环境。在“任务视图”(Task View)屏幕中,单击或点击要用于切换到它的虚拟桌面。
默认情况下,在您的第一个桌面上打开的应用程序不会显示在任何新桌面上。这样,您就可以开始在每个Windows 10虚拟桌面上打开一组与您的不同任务相关的新应用和文档。随时返回任务视图(Task View)并将鼠标光标悬停在顶部的虚拟桌面预览上,以查看其上打开的窗口的概述。
在桌面之间切换的一种快速替代方法是使用键盘快捷键。要切换到下一个桌面,请按键盘上的Ctrl + Windows + Right Arrow。
要立即切换到上一个桌面,请按Ctrl + Windows + Left Arrow。
如果您使用的是触摸板,您还可以通过用四根手指向左或向右滑动来在桌面之间切换。在掌握它之前,这可能需要一些尝试。但是,请记住,除非您使用的是Task View ,否则在多个桌面之间切换的快捷方式有点复杂,因为您需要知道您在哪个桌面上。
如何将窗口从一个虚拟桌面移动到另一个
当您启动应用程序时,它会默认在您当时使用的虚拟桌面上打开。但是,为了在Windows 10(Windows 10)中更好地组织您的任务,您可能希望将一个窗口从虚拟桌面移动到另一个。为此,您需要访问Task View。找到要移动的窗口,然后右键单击或按住它以打开上下文菜单。单击(Click)或点按移动到(Move to)并选择要在其中使用窗口的虚拟桌面。
将窗口从虚拟桌面移动到另一个窗口的另一种方法是拖放它。首先(First),在打开的窗口上单击并继续按住鼠标按钮(或按住触摸屏)以抓取它。将其拖到您要将其移动到的虚拟桌面上。当窗口变小并且桌面突出显示时,松开按钮(或将手指从屏幕上移开)以放下应用程序。该窗口现在在您选择的虚拟桌面上打开。
继续(Continue)在您的虚拟桌面之间移动应用程序,直到您以有利于您的工作流程并且对您有意义的方式组织所有内容。
提示:(TIP:)移动应用程序窗口可能是有益的,但您不必总是这样做。请记住,您始终可以将在一个桌面上打开的文档中的数据复制/粘贴到在另一个桌面上打开的应用程序中。
如何在所有虚拟桌面上固定应用程序窗口
有时您必须监视特定的应用程序或窗口,因此无论您使用的是什么虚拟桌面,您都希望轻松访问它。幸运的是,Windows 10 允许您将应用程序窗口固定在每个活动的虚拟桌面上。在任务视图(Task View)中,右键单击或按住要固定的窗口,然后单击或点击“在所有桌面上显示此窗口("Show this window on all desktops)”。
这将检查上下文菜单中的选项,使窗口出现在Windows 10中的每个虚拟桌面上。如果您不再需要关注该应用程序窗口,请再次打开其上下文菜单,然后单击或点击相同的选项以取消选中它。
取消选中该选项会使窗口的重复项从其他桌面上消失。该窗口仅在用于取消选中它的桌面上保持打开状态。
您还可以将应用程序的所有窗口固定在每个可用的虚拟环境中。右键单击或按住应用程序的窗口,然后单击或点击“在所有桌面上显示此应用程序的窗口”("Show windows from this app on all desktops")选项。
如上所示,我们为File Explorer启用了最后一个选项。这会在所有桌面上打开应用程序的窗口。当此选项处于活动状态时,在任何桌面上打开的新文件资源管理器窗口会自动出现在每个可用的虚拟桌面上,并且即使在重新启动后设置仍然存在。(File Explorer)右键单击或按住任务视图中的任何(Task View)文件资源管理器(File Explorer)窗口会打开一个上下文菜单,其中“在所有桌面上显示此窗口”("Show this window on all desktops")和“在所有桌面上显示此应用程序的窗口”("Show windows from this app on all desktops")选项都处于活动状态,甚至如果您只启用了后者。
因此,如果您想固定除一个应用程序之外的每个窗口,只需取消选中该窗口的“在所有桌面上显示此窗口”("Show this window on all desktops")选项,同时选中第二个窗口。然后,取消固定的窗口仅在您取消固定时使用的桌面上打开。
单击或再次点击“在所有桌面上显示此应用程序("Show windows from this app on all desktops")的窗口”选项以取消固定应用程序的所有窗口。这也会自动取消选中第一个选项,将该应用程序的所有窗口放在桌面上,用于从“任务视图”(Task View)屏幕禁用该选项。
如何在Windows 10中关闭虚拟桌面(Windows 10)
如果您不再需要桌面,您可以随时关闭它。一种简单的方法是打开任务视图(Task View)并将光标悬停在要删除的桌面上。X按钮显示在虚拟桌面的右上角。单击(Click)或点击X按钮,虚拟桌面会立即关闭。
在您关闭的虚拟环境中打开的任何应用程序窗口都会立即移动到左侧的桌面,除非您删除第一个 - 这会将其窗口移动到右侧。例如,如果您要关闭第三个虚拟桌面,则其上的每个窗口都会自动转移到第二个虚拟桌面。但是,关闭第一个虚拟桌面,这一切都会转移到第二个虚拟桌面,现在它成为主要桌面。
或者,您也可以使用键盘快捷键Ctrl + Windows + F4从任何屏幕关闭活动的虚拟桌面。当前虚拟工作区关闭,您将被重新定位到相邻的虚拟桌面以及您的窗口,如上所述。
Windows 10中的虚拟桌面设置
在Windows 10中,您可以通过调整虚拟桌面的设置来更轻松地访问分布在多个桌面上的窗口应用程序,从而充分利用虚拟桌面。打开设置(Open Settings),然后单击或点击系统(System)。
在系统设置(System Settings)中,单击或点击左侧的多任务选项卡(如果需要,向下滚动)。(Multitasking)然后,在右侧,您可以在页面底部找到虚拟桌面。(Virtual desktops)
单击或点击“在任务栏上,显示打开的窗口”("On the taskbar, show windows that are open on")选项下的框会显示一个下拉菜单。默认情况下,任何虚拟桌面的任务栏都设置为仅显示该桌面打开的应用程序窗口。但是,如果您始终希望任务栏显示 Windows 10 设备上打开的每个窗口的图标,无论它位于哪个虚拟桌面上,您都可以单击或点击所有桌面。(All desktops)
第二个选项修改Alt + Tab键盘快捷键的行为,这将打开Task switcher。默认情况下,您可以按住Alt键并按Tab在桌面上打开的窗口之间切换焦点。找到要访问的应用程序后松开按钮。单击(Click)或点击"Pressing Alt+Tab shows windows that are open on"选项下的框以显示下拉菜单,如果您希望快捷方式循环浏览 Windows 上打开的所有窗口应用程序,您可以在其中选择所有桌面(All desktops)10 台设备,来自您的所有虚拟桌面。
您将如何改进Windows 10中的虚拟桌面?
虽然虚拟桌面对需要在Windows 10(Windows 10)设备上打开大量应用程序窗口的高级用户更有用,但如果您想保持井井有条并专注于您的任务,该功能也非常出色。我们迫不及待地想看看微软接下来如何改进这个功能。我们希望能够通过为每个虚拟桌面设置不同的背景或更改配色方案来个性化虚拟桌面。另一个改进是一个谨慎的横幅,让您在使用快捷方式在虚拟环境之间切换时知道您所在的桌面。你怎么看?您(Are)是否希望 Microsoft 添加任何其他功能?不要犹豫,使用下面的评论部分来分享您对虚拟桌面应如何在Windows 10中发展的想法。
How to use multiple desktops in Windows 10: All you need to know
Using multiple virtual desktops in Windows 10 helps you organize your tasks better, allowing you to avoid clutter аnd distractionѕ whilе focusіng on a specific activity. You can group the apps needed for your currеnt work project on one virtual desktop, have your mаil and social media open on another, and plan your upcoming vacation on a third desktop. If you're constantly trying to find your wаy through too manу open apps in Windows 10, multiple desktops сan make yоur life easіer, allowing you to operаte several virtual workspaces on the same screen. This tutorial illustrateѕ everything you need to know about using multiple virtual desktoрs in Windows 10 for easier multitasking and increased productivity:
NOTE: The features presented are available in Windows 10 May 2020 Update or newer. If you are using an older version of Windows 10, you might not have access to all the features. Check your Windows 10 build and, if necessary, get the latest Windows 10 update available.
How to access virtual desktops in Windows 10
Windows 10 introduced virtual desktops as part of the Task View feature. There are multiple ways to access Task View, and we go through all of them and more in our tutorial: What is Task View in Windows 10 and how to use it. We find it easiest to use the Windows + Tab shortcut on our keyboards to open the Task View and access virtual desktops in Windows 10.
How to create a new desktop in Windows 10
When you open Task View, the screen dims, displaying previews for all your open app windows. To create an additional desktop, click or tap the "+ New desktop" button at the top-left corner of the Task View screen.
NOTE: If you scroll down in Task View instead, you can see the Timeline - a log of your activities on all the devices connected to your Microsoft account for the last 30 days. For more details, read our tutorial about the Windows 10 Timeline.
By default, when a new virtual environment is created, your current desktop with its open app windows becomes Desktop 1, and the new one is named Desktop 2. Windows 10 displays previews of all the available virtual desktops in a bar at the top of the Task View screen.
To create another virtual desktop, click or tap on the slightly different "+ New desktop" button on top. New desktops are always added to the right.
Regardless of which "+ New desktop" button is available, you can also click, and then continue to hold down the mouse button (or press-and-hold for touchscreens) on an open app window in the Task View to grab it. Drag it on top of the "+ New desktop" button and drop the app window by releasing the button (or taking your finger off the screen) when the app becomes smaller and the button is highlighted.
This creates a new desktop where the app you moved is the only open window. You get the same result by first right-clicking or pressing-and-holding on an app window to open a contextual menu, and then pressing Move to and New desktop.
Alternatively, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Windows + D on any screen to immediately create a new virtual desktop in Windows 10.
Once created, a virtual desktop is still there even after restarting your Windows 10 computer or device. You can create as many virtual desktops as you want and spread different projects with their related app windows on each of them. However, keep in mind that creating too many might defeat the purpose of making things simpler in Windows 10.
How to rename a virtual desktop in Windows 10
A recent upgrade to the Windows 10 virtual desktops is the ability to rename each of them as you see fit. This is great news as we didn't much like being stuck with the generic names Desktop 1, Desktop 2, and so on, which often made it difficult to find the desktop we were looking for.
To rename a virtual desktop, it's easiest to just click or tap on its name in the Task View screen.
Alternatively, you can also right-click or press-and-hold on any virtual desktop displayed, and then choose Rename.
You can now edit the name field. Type in a name indicative of the activity you plan to carry on that virtual desktop. You can use up to 50 characters for a virtual desktop's name.
As you might have noticed, there are already a lot of Digital Citizen windows open on my first desktop, so I chose to rename it to Work. When you are done inserting the new name, press Enter or click or tap anywhere on your screen to save your changes.
You can create multiple desktops in Windows 10 and rename each one based on the projects or apps they relate to, as seen below.
How to switch between virtual desktops in Windows 10
A new desktop offers a new virtual environment for any activity you want to focus on in Windows 10. In the Task View screen, click or tap on the virtual desktop you want to use to switch to it.
By default, the apps open on your first desktop are not displayed on any new ones. This way, you can start opening a new set of apps and documents related to your different tasks on each Windows 10 virtual desktop. Return to the Task View at any point and hover your mouse cursor over a virtual desktop's preview at the top to see an overview of the windows open on it.
A fast alternative to switch between desktops is to use keyboard shortcuts. To switch to the next desktop, press Ctrl + Windows + Right Arrow on your keyboard.
To immediately switch to the previous desktop, press Ctrl + Windows + Left Arrow.
If you are using a touchpad, you can also switch between desktops by swiping on it left or right using four fingers. This might take a few tries before you get the hang of it. However, keep in mind that, unless you're using Task View, the shortcuts to switch between multiple desktops are a bit more complicated, because you need to know which desktop you're on.
How to move windows from one virtual desktop to another
When you launch an application, it opens by default on the virtual desktop you are using at the time. However, to organize your tasks better in Windows 10, you might want to move a window from a virtual desktop to another. To do that, you need to access the Task View. Find the window you want to move and right-click or press-and-hold on it to open a contextual menu. Click or tap Move to and choose the virtual desktop where you want to use the window.
Another way to move a window from a virtual desktop to another is to drag and drop it. First, click and continue holding down the mouse button (or press-and-hold for touchscreens) on an open window to grab it. Drag it onto the virtual desktop you want to move it to. When the window becomes smaller, and the desktop is highlighted, release the button (or lift your finger off the screen) to drop the app. The window is now open on the virtual desktop of your choice.
Continue moving apps between your virtual desktops until you organize everything in a way that benefits your workflow and makes sense to you.
TIP: Moving app windows can be beneficial, but you don't always have to do it. Keep in mind that you can always copy/paste data from documents open in one desktop into apps open on another.
How to pin app windows on all virtual desktops
There are times when you have to monitor a particular app or window, so you want easy access to it regardless of the virtual desktop you are using. Luckily, Windows 10 lets you pin app windows on every active virtual desktop. In the Task View, right-click or press-and-hold on the window you want to pin, and then click or tap on "Show this window on all desktops."
This checks the option in the contextual menu, making the window appear on every virtual desktop in Windows 10. If you no longer need to keep an eye on that app window, open its contextual menu again and click or tap on the same option to uncheck it.
Unchecking the option makes the window's duplicates disappear from the other desktops. The window remains open only on the desktop used to uncheck it.
You can also pin all the windows of an app on every virtual environment available. Right-click or press-and-hold on an app's window, and then click or tap on the "Show windows from this app on all desktops" option.
As seen above, we enabled this last option for File Explorer. This opens the app's windows on all desktops. While this option is active, new File Explorer windows open on any desktop automatically appear on every available virtual desktop, and the setting persists even after a restart. Right-clicking or pressing-and-holding on any File Explorer window in Task View opens a contextual menu, where both the "Show this window on all desktops" and the "Show windows from this app on all desktops" options are active, even if you only enabled the latter.
So, if you want to pin every window of an app but one, just uncheck the "Show this window on all desktops" option for that window, while leaving the second one checked. The unpinned window is then only open on the desktop you were using when you unpinned it.
Click or tap again on the "Show windows from this app on all desktops" option to unpin all the windows of an app. This also unchecks the first option automatically, bringing all the windows of that app together on the desktop used to disable the option from the Task View screen.
How to close a virtual desktop in Windows 10
If you no longer need a desktop, you can close it any time you want. An easy way to do that is to open Task View and hover your cursor over the desktop that you want to remove. An X button is displayed on the top-right corner of the virtual desktop. Click or tap on the X button, and the virtual desktop closes immediately.
Any app windows that were open on the virtual environment you closed are immediately moved to the desktop to the left, unless you remove the first one - which moves its windows to the right. For instance, if you are closing the third virtual desktop, every window on it is automatically transferred to the second virtual desktop. However, close the first one, and it all moves to the second virtual desktop, which now becomes the primary one.
Alternatively, you can also close an active virtual desktop from any screen with the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Windows + F4. The current virtual workspace closes, and you are relocated to the adjacent virtual desktop, together with your windows, as described above.
Virtual desktop settings in Windows 10
In Windows 10, you can make the most out of virtual desktops by tweaking their settings to access the window apps spread across multiple desktops more easily. Open Settings and click or tap on System.
In System Settings, click or tap on the Multitasking tab on the left-hand side (scroll down if you need to). Then, on the right-hand side, you can find the Virtual desktops towards the bottom of the page.
Clicking or tapping the box under the "On the taskbar, show windows that are open on" option reveals a drop-down menu. By default, the taskbar of any virtual desktop is set up to only show the open app windows for that desktop. However, you can click or tap on All desktops, if you always want the taskbar to display the icons of every window that's open on your Windows 10 device, regardless of the virtual desktop it's on.
The second option modifies the behavior of the Alt + Tab keyboard shortcut, which opens the Task switcher. By default, you can hold down the Alt key and press Tab to switch focus between the open windows on a desktop. Release the buttons when you find the app you want to access. Click or tap on the box under the "Pressing Alt+Tab shows windows that are open on" option to reveal a drow-down, where you can choose All desktops if you want the shortcut to cycle through all the window apps open on your Windows 10 device, from all your virtual desktops.
How would you improve virtual desktops in Windows 10?
While virtual desktops are more useful to power users, who need a lot of app windows open on their Windows 10 devices, the feature is also excellent if you want to keep organized and remain focused on your tasks. We can't wait to see how Microsoft improves this feature next. We are hoping for the ability to personalize virtual desktops by setting different backgrounds for each of them or changing the color scheme. Another improvement would be a discreet banner letting you know the desktop you're on when you use shortcuts to switch between virtual environments. What do you think? Are there any other features you want Microsoft to add? Don't hesitate to use the comments section below to share your thoughts on how virtual desktops should evolve in Windows 10.
