## What it is
A small Windows utility that adds a 'Move to Desktop' option to the window system menu and provides hotkeys (WIN+ALT+Left/Right) for moving windows between virtual desktops. It is written in C++ and runs as a lightweight background application.

## Use cases
- move windows between virtual desktops with hotkeys
- add move to desktop option to windows system menu
- manage windows 10 virtual desktops faster
- switch desktop after moving a window
- configure custom hotkeys for window movement

## When to choose
- you use Windows 10 virtual desktops and want keyboard shortcuts to move windows
- you want a lightweight, no-install utility rather than a full window manager
- you prefer moving windows via the right-click system menu

## When to avoid
- you are on Windows 11, which has built-in virtual desktop shortcuts
- you need a full-featured window manager with layouts and snapping
- you need actively maintained software with recent updates
