Personalizing the computer and adding new features to Windows is a quite fun activity, as long as you don't get entangled with complicated tweaks that may do the opposite of optimizing the PC. The visual enhancements are usually the most sought after and for those who work on a regular basis with several applications at once, a new way of moving among them could be of interest.
A utility that may prove quite helpful in this respect is the one that goes by the name of MacSwitch. It was designed to act as a replacement for the Alt+Tab command with which the majority of computer users are well accustomed with.
To be more precise, this software solution will actually change the appearance of that specific menu and of the icons that are part of it. The OS X style may seem attractive to many users, as it is an established fact that this kind of apps are better looking than most of those running on the Windows platform.
After installing MacSwitch, you can start it and have its functionality come into effect each time you press the window switching key combination. The appearance of the new menu includes a transparent background and shiny new icons.
As a matter of fact, you can customize manually the aspect of any item that is included on that list by right-clicking it and accessing its properties area. Besides picking a new icon, you can assign a new label to the selected item.
The looks of MacSwitch's GUI can be set to the simple mode, and without transparency in case you encounter issues with the refresh rate or other visuals related glitches. There is one more method of browsing through the running applications, namely by pressing the middle mouse button while holding down the Shift key.
On the whole, this tool can be really fun to use and is most appropriate for those who wish to have a pinch of OS X in their Windows.
