I have just started using Windows 11 last week and discovered this nice feature named Task View in Windows 11.

With Task view, you can have multiple “virtual desktops” on the same PC and switch between them with ease. Each desktop contains its own arrangement of open windows and applications, but the icons on the “storage desktop” stay the same across all virtual desktops.



I know that with Sierra chart you can open multiple instances so i was wondering if some of you have started to use this feature and how it goes.

I am jealous as i would have liked to do the samething with Ninjatrader but i can only open one instance. However, i find this Task view quite convenient and fast when switching desktop.

Found it in Windows 10. The icon is not the same as on Windows 11. I never thought about clicking on this button on Windows 10 for some reason. It seems better implemented on Windows 11. The button looks like the Foreground/Backgound switch button on Photoshop. That's what caught my atttention. Funny, as i learned something new today.
