A suite of desktop enhancement utilities for Windows created by Stardock, including Fences, DeskScapes, Multiplicity and more to customize and enhance the Windows desktop experience.

What is Object Desktop?

Object Desktop is a suite of desktop enhancement utilities and customization tools for the Windows operating system. It is created and published by software company Stardock.

The suite includes popular programs like Fences, which helps organize desktop shortcuts and icons; DeskScapes for customizable desktop wallpaper animations; Multiplicity for extended multi-monitor control; WindowBlinds for custom window borders and frames; and other tools to enhance the look, feel, organization and productivity of the Windows desktop environment.

Object Desktop provides easy ways for Windows users to tweak, customize, and adapt their desktop environment to suit personal preferences and workflows. It helps declutter the desktop, make better use of screen real estate across monitors, set up useful shortcuts and organization zones, and give the desktop a unique visual style.

The suite is designed as an all-in-one set of desktop enhancements for Windows, avoiding the need to mix and match individual customization tools. It has a long history, originally launched in 2001 by Stardock, and is popular particularly among power users and technicians looking for tools above and beyond the native desktop customization options in Windows.
