I just installed DeskmanPowerToy on my XP SP3 PC. The installation completed
successfully, but as far as I can see there is no desktop icon and nothing
listed in the Start menu.

So how does one use it?

Right click on the Taskbar at the bottom of your screen. Move your mouse pointer
up to Toolbars. In the menu that pops out, click on Desktop Manager. You should
now see the MSVDM toolbar in your Taskbar. Right click on this toolbar and
select MSVDM Help from the menu for guidance on using this PowerToy.

Good luck

Just did it. Love it! This is amazing ! How did I live without it all
this time?

Kidding aside, does this toy use much memory?

Thanks.

One thing the PowerToy did was replace my desktop background. Not a big
deal but where would my old background image be?

Is there a setting (in registry or anywhere else) that would tell me the
name of the one I used to use before DeskmanPowerToy desktop?

Thanks. You guys are super.

YW. Most users found it had a lot of shortcomings and ended up getting rid
of it.
 
Try System Restore, Jeff.
