DExposE2 Description

If you're currently looking for a new task switcher to replace the old-fashioned Alt + Tab Windows utility, you're in luck. DexposE2 is such an application and it is inspired by the eye-candy Mac OS X Expose tool, which means you can now turn your Windows workstation into a much more appealing working environment. What DexposE2 actually does is to provide a new way to switch from one active window to another just by moving the mouse cursor in the corners of the screen. Obviously, you can also configure hotkeys to easily control all its features from the keyboard, but everything seems a bit quicker when using the mouse. Moving the mouse cursor in a corner of the screen shows the thumbnails of the running apps, letting you pick the one you wish to access with a single click. Obviously, if you wish to configure the program you have to open the preferences window which, unfortunately, doesn't rely on a user friendly approach. It does provide a great amount of options, but it doesn't adopt an intuitive attitude, so you may need to click on every single menu to find the settings you're looking for. Still, it allows you configure expose method and thumbnails, as well as the exclusion list and the hotkeys we were talking about. You need to be a computer guru to be able to use DexposE2 and a bigger problem is that it comes with no help manual, which means you can't receive assistance if there's something wrong with the program. All in all, DexposE2 is an interesting way to bring the appealing Mac OS X Expose tool on Windows. Unfortunately, it doesn't work so well on Windows 7, mostly because the bottom right corner is already being used to preview the desktop. Reviewed by Bogdan Popa, last updated on April 3rd, 2012
