@flhauff @Cobertos hey just so you know Windows 10 2004/20H1/May 2020 Update will finally let you name virtual desktops by right clicking on them in task view.

Kuukunen's fork of SylphyHornEx is cool! https://github.com/kuukunen/SylphyHornEx

This would really be ideal for my use case as well. I manage multiple projects at once and it'd be nice if I could like Ctrl + Win + R rename a desktop so that each one could be a separate project.

@Cobertos You can already do this with the current version of windows. Double click on the title of the desktop in TaskView mode and then just type the name you want. Only you will not get it displayed through this app yet. (:

Thank you @Poopooracoocoo, I saw it, I am using it. Does not do everything I need... so I am using it with a combination of other things. I will likely setup a page on my website soon outlining exactly what I am doing and how with video. And I may have gone a bit overkill here....

Virtual Desktop Indicator for System Tray

Puts Left and Right Icons in System Tray to change desktops

Set Additional Hokeys for switching (I use it to also allow switching on the regular D1 keyboard numbers and mouse wheel scroll from taskbar to change desktops)

Commandline tool for Managing Dekstops (I use this with a batch file in my startup to move all my apps to the virtual desktop they belong on)

Virtual Desktop Switcher (Puts Icons in System Tray to switch desktop left/right)
https://github.com/hangacs/VirtualDesktopSwitcher

I have my mouse configured so if I press the mouse wheel I go to the right desktop and if I hit the forward thumb button I go to the left desktop. Very handy for remote sessions as well.

The only two things I am missing now is a quick, non-memory intensive way to visually change desktops. I will likely make a little program that pops up a button for each desktop when I execute it. And also buttons in my task bar to switch desktop just by pressing the button for it. Like a switching grid. I already know how to make this and plan to do it soon.

@DesktopMasters you should check out the fork of this app I linked to above. This app is dead, and so is the other one honestly, but it's more alive.
