XenCommand
A Windows desktop utility that saves your desktop as a workspace and brings it back in one click. One-time purchase. Made for Windows 11.
What it does
Arrange your windows by hand or with Windows Snap, then save the desktop as a workspace. XenCommand records each window's app, monitor, position and state — normal, full screen or minimized.
Each screen is a card with layouts such as halves, thirds and quarters. Drag windows between zones and screens, see which windows sit in front and which are behind, and fine-tune any window to the percent.
Switch to any saved workspace with one click or its own hotkey. Apps that are not running are started; apps that are already open are reused. Several windows of the same app, specific File Explorer folders and Store apps are all supported.
Windows are moved into place on the right monitor, at the right size, in the right order. Slow apps are placed as soon as they appear, and anything that could not be placed is listed with the reason.
Give a browser window the pages it should open as tabs and, for Chromium browsers, the profile to open them in. Works with Edge, Chrome, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi and Firefox. A browser window you already have open is used: missing tabs are opened in it, and your other tabs stay.
Optionally keep a workspace in place: XenCommand puts windows back when they are moved, or asks first.
Technical details
- Monitors are recognised so a workspace lands on the right screens; if one is missing, you choose where its windows go.
- Keep one workspace per desktop setup — laptop alone, docked, three screens.
- Workspaces are plain local files you can export and import.
- Starts with Windows if you want it to, and waits in the notification area.
- Native Windows program. Everything runs on your PC: no account, no internet access, no telemetry.
What it does not do
- Sync workspaces to the cloud or between PCs — export and import a file instead
- Require an account or sign-in
- Restore what is inside a program, such as open documents or unsaved work
- Move the windows of programs running as administrator
- Switch between Windows virtual desktops, or move other programs' windows between them — it arranges the windows on the desktop you are on
