The sysinternals virtual desktops free software is highly buggy (crashes on creating new desktop many times when connected to external monitor needing a reboot), hogs memory, never worked well with the Windows 8.1 start menu, never worked well with Windows Store Apps and Alt-Tab. I am glad that virtual desktops are now natively supported.



Mmm, Desktops v2 seemed to work OK, though I never tried it in Windows 8. And there were always third-party alternatives. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/cc817881

No argument there ;-)
