  • DM2

  • DM2 provides several Windows enhancements that may help in every-day work. One of the nicest and most popular features of DM2 is minimizing windows to floating icons® (unique feature!) freeing both task bar and tray bar space. Moreover, DM2 can manipulate windows in various ways: minimize to tray, make them standing always on-top over all other windows, roll to caption, resize, align to screen borders, hide, set the opacity etc. DM2 also helps with Open/Save dialog boxes, by providing user-defined menu with favorites and recent files and folders. Plenty of programs settings options will satisfy most of requirements. »

  • eXtra Buttons

  • eXtra Buttons lets you add up to 10 additional buttons to the title bar of each window, which allow you to minimize the window to the tray, keep it on-top, send it to the background, adjust the window's transparency and more. There are three options for minimizing windows, you can add them to the system tray as icon, add them to a common tray icon (launch menu) or minimize them as icons to your desktop, keeping your system tray and taskbar less cluttered. If you don't need all these options, you can choose to remove the buttons you don't want. All options are also available if you right-click on the title bar of a window. eXtra Buttons works with all Windows Explorer windows and many third party applications. »
