This small freebie lets you organize shortcuts into one desktop drop-down menu, though you'll need to pay attention during setup. Ultimate Desktop isn't launched from the Start menu or system tray; instead, it's set up in Windows' Display Properties as a desktop background option. You should see the day and time in the upper middle of your screen; if not, try refreshing the desktop. You'll find a few shortcuts to Notepad and Google maps already offered in Ultimate Desktop's pull-down menu. Just choose Open uDesktop to add shortcuts to Web sites, files, folders, programs, or even scripts. Additionally, you can set Ultimate Desktop to change desktop wallpaper at chosen intervals and easily add your favorite images to its wallpaper list. Backup data and JavaScripts for automating some tasks can be found and stored under the program's uScript tab. Ultimate Desktop offers any user quick access to favorite files and more.
