My Desktop Lately
Thursday, January 12, 2023 by redskittlesonly | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Customizing the look and feel of your Windows desktop can be a fun and easy way to make your computer feel like your own. One way to do this is by using Start11, WindowBlinds 11, and Fences 4. In this post, we'll go over how I use these products to personalize my desktop.
First, Start11. This program allows you to customize the look and functionality of the Windows Start menu. With Start11, you can change styles, colors, transparency, shortcut links, rounded or squared corners, and even add your own custom shortcuts. Try it for free here.
I like using the more familiar start menu which is a combo of the Win 7 style and the more modern look ("Modern style" to be exact).
Next, let's talk about WindowBlinds 11. This program allows you to change the appearance of the windows on your desktop. With WindowBlinds, you can change the color and style of the window borders, add a custom background to your windows, and even use skins to change the overall look of your windows. Try it for free here.
For WindowBlinds, I like something more slick/modern looking, so I have been running Eva.
Finally, let's talk about Fences 4. This program allows you to organize your desktop by grouping shortcuts and files into "fences" that you can move and resize as needed. With Fences, you can create multiple fences to keep your desktop organized and clutter-free. Try it for free here.
I like to use just a few important fences to organize the programs I toggle through the most. The folder portal is one of my favorite features with Fences.
Here's a quick snapshot of my desktop this month:
