Show Desktop

Show Desktop is a small software application whose purpose is to help you do some cleaning on your desktop and remove the clutter by hiding all opened windows. The entire process can be controlled from the system tray with ease.

Look for the tool in the system tray

It takes only a fast and simple installation process in order to gain access to the program’s configuration parameters. The utility runs quietly in the system tray, hiding in the background. It does not interfere with your work, and display annoying popup messages and other notifications.
You can open its dedicated parameters by right-clicking on the tray icon. A help manual cannot be found in the package. However, you do not need one in order to understand how it works because the integrated options look easy to interpret.

Hide all running processes with a single click

Show Desktop offers you the possibility to perform a single left-click on the tray icon in order to automatically conceal all opened panels. This way, you can also hide private documents and sensitive information from other users that may happen to pass by.
In order to bring back the running programs, you just need to repeat the click on the tray icon. The hiding and concealing process can also be accomplished via right-clicks from the system tray. Tests have shown that Show Desktop carries out a task quickly and without errors. It remains light on system resources so you can keep it running in the background without worrying that it affects the overall performance of the computer.

Final notes

The bottom line is that Show Desktop has to offer nothing more than a simplistic software solution for helping you minimize all opened windows from the system tray. It can be tweaked by less experienced users and professional alike.
