VirtualDesktopSwitcher is a lightweight Windows utility for rapidly switching between virtual desktops using customizable keyboard shortcuts. It allows users to jump directly to desktops numbered one through nine instead of navigating sequentially. A floating desktop indicator displays active desktops, desktop names, and workspace occupancy. Users can customize the indicator's position, appearance, font, and size. Windows can be moved between desktops by dragging them onto the indicator or pinned across all workspaces through a shortcut. Mouse wheel navigation provides another way to switch desktops without opening Task View. The application also supports automatic window focusing across multiple monitors and desktop numbering in the system tray. Its standalone executable uses approximately 2 MB of memory and supports Windows 10 and 11.
