Vital Desktop

Vital Desktop can make your desktop look more dynamic by using any installed screensaver as the desktop wallpaper. The application does not modify the functionality of the desktop, keeping the icons usable and enabling you to continue working just as if the background was static.

Vital Desktop is compatible with versions of Windows up to XP, so if you are using a more recent edition, please note that it might not work properly.

The configuration process shouldn't take more than a few minutes. Your task is to select one of the installed screensavers and with the push of a button, the settings are applied and you will be able to enjoy the selected screensaver on the desktop background. Please note that not all the screensavers are compatible with Vital Desktop.

In case you consider the animation is too fast, Vital Desktop offers you the possibility to adjust its speed by modifying the slowdown factor.

For your convenience, the application adds a new item in the right-click menu, enabling you to activate it, start and stop its actions, return to the original wallpaper and configure the screensaver behavior much easier. Alternatively, you can instruct the application to display a system tray icon, if you consider it to be more accessible.

Vital Desktop allows you to enjoy your favorite screensaver while working, replacing the static background picture with a dynamic animation. It is a neat way to customize the appearance of your computer, but the incompatibility with more recent versions of Windows is a drawback for most users.
