About PeekDesktop

macOS Sonoma lets you click the wallpaper to sweep all windows out of the way, and Windows has nothing quite like it. PeekDesktop copies the trick: click an empty spot on the desktop, everything minimises, click again and it all returns.

The tray menu has toggles for double-click and taskbar peek, plus an optional Fly Away animation. It's MIT licensed, with x64 and ARM64 zips in the releases, and a winget package is planned.

Highlights

  • Click empty desktop to minimise all windows
  • Click again to restore them
  • Tray toggles for double-click and taskbar peek
  • Optional Fly Away animation

Requirements

Windows 10 or 11 (x64 or ARM64)
