The addition of tabs to web browsers represented a major leap in practicality and flexibility. Tabs can also be a feature of documents and other applications to make work a lot easier. With this in mind, WindowTabs comes with the means to help you organize almost all desktop windows and elements in tabs, even if not related.

It’s best to first make sure that .NET Framework is installed on your computer because it’s a mandatory requirement for functionality, even though modern Windows iterations come with it as a default feature. Moreover, there’s also WindowTabs Portable you can carry around for even more flexibility.

With no restart required after installation you can go ahead to see what the app is all about. You instantly see the difference on any active window, because there’s nothing forced or grouped together by default. Instead, each window is fitted with a tab above the upper border, and dragging it makes it possible to combine it with another instance in a similar manner you handle tabs in two instances of a web browser.

It might seem like you already benefit from all the flexibility you need, but the application can be heavily customized for more comfort. On the one hand you can choose to exclude specific programs from being targeted, or choose to automatically group instances of the same type, or even different windows together.

On the other hand, you can take the time to launch all application you frequently use in order to create a custom layout. This can be saved so every time programs from the specific layout are launched they’re automatically grouped.

Tabs only sit in the upper part of the window, but there’s enough room so they don’t interfere with anything, especially since they can be set to automatically slide in and out on mouse interaction or lack of. Colors can be configured to make it feel personal, while advanced behavior settings come in handy for converting the task switcher to tab switcher, configure navigation hotkeys, and make it run on startup.

Taking everything into consideration, we can say that WindowTabs is a powerful tool which provides almost the same flexibility when working with multiple monitors. It allows clever customization of your workspace without ever having to feel overwhelmed when working with multiple active programs and windows.
