Keeping a tidy Desktop

imageThis is a good idea for keeping a tidy Desktop, or a virtual one at least. TrayEverything can minimise programs into the Notification area rather than the TaskBar.

Down in the Notification Area the programs only take up as much space as one icon, rather than the full name.

TrayEverything is also useful for reducing distractions as it can automatically minimise programs that are left idle for a certain amount of time. So you won't get distracted by emails coming in or Bit Torrents finishing.

I've a couple of minor gripes, one being the inability to resize the window, but overall this is a very useful little utility.

Thanks for the tip. My desktop gets cluttered up quick.
