Active Desktop Plus

Active Desktop Plus is a cool tool if you want to brighten up your desktop or just want some eye-catching wallpaper. It’s super easy to use and lets you bring your favorite apps right onto your screen.

What is Active Desktop Plus?

This app builds on Microsoft’s Active Desktop, which first appeared ages ago to make Internet Explorer look more interesting. With this feature, users could add HTML content from their browser straight to their desktop. So, instead of having a boring static wallpaper, you could spice things up!

Bring Your Apps to Life

With Active Desktop Plus, you can turn nearly any app, video, or webpage into a full-screen wallpaper! Imagine turning your video player or web browser into a background that actually moves! Just keep in mind that not all programs work with it, so you'll need to test your favorites.

User-Friendly Design

The interface of Active Desktop Plus is designed to be super straightforward. You’ll see helpful tips when you hover over buttons, making it easier and faster for you to navigate the app. When you're ready to send an active window to your desktop, just press CTRL, click on the title bar of the application, and you'll see its name pop up in the main window.

Customizing Your Background

You can send it directly to your desktop or save it for later use! If you'd rather use a video from your hard drive as the background, just type in the full file path and give it a friendly name. You'll also get to pick which monitor displays it!

Set It Up Your Way

You can even choose how you want it to start—locked, pinned or automatically—when you open Active Desktop Plus. This gives you total control over what shows up on your screen.

Add Some Fun!

If you're looking for a way to make your workspace more fun and interesting, Active Desktop Plus is definitely worth checking out!
