Top right 4 little load meters (CPU1, CPU2, Mem and Swap).

Taskbar expands and shrinks tasks so when only one task is running as in screenshot it will span the whole taskbar. If there are no tasks

there is no taskbar.

Wall is here.

I found out that I can run 1080 progressive, high definition on my PC monitor today.

My desktop hasn't been the same sense.

The resolution is phenomenally better and the way things look and display is just beautiful.

Also; I'm seeing a lot of people saying "Link to wallpaper?", please remember people; TinEye is your best friend, it's mentioned on the first post of this thread, and there's even a Firefox extension that makes it -very- easy to find peoples desktops.

If you want this desktop; please ask, I lost where I got it, and I'll re-host it.

yeah i want it too

I think I forgot to post my desktop last month. Hmmm.

Here is mine for this week. The wallpaper will change to the winter one once I feel like it's winter. I live in Texas so it feels like ass everyday. I don't know if anyone knows what ass feels like. It's kind of indescribable. Don't judge me.

Wallpaper: Fall Trees by D. Lanham

Icons: Flurry by D. Lanham and L. Mantia

Visual Style: Windows 7-Blend 1.8 by Zain Adeel

I got some other icons from the Flurry Extras pack so if you're looking for those they're on the same website. Just search for Flurry. Toodles!

Do you have that wallpaper in 3360x1050? I searched for it but couldn't find any dual monitor ones

I Would also like this wallpaper.

EDIT: I googled the file name from one of his screenshots and found it

My main screen (1920x1080 in HD) is the Yellow guy (designed by Nathan Sawaya, http://brickartist.com/ , a guy who owns the largest private collection of LEGO in the world, and is a master builder of LEGO.. and a personal favorite artist of mine.), and the second screen (1680x1050 non-HD) is my secondary monitor, with the LEGO logo. Both are LCD screens.

Configured by the amazing program UltraMon.

    • You are clueless. The updates are done in the background so the next time you open Edge the updates are applied automatically. There is no need to close all your tabs. Just keep browsing like you normally do. Clearly you don't use Edge and are just one of those haters that complain for the sake of complaining.
    • I don't get this David. Can you explain it please.  
    • Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.
