Multi-Monitor Taskbar

If you ever saw a dual-monitor or even multi-monitor setup under Windows you might have noticed that the Windows Taskbar is not expanding to the other connected monitors but stays locked on the main computer monitor. That taskbar will display all open folders and applications of all three computer monitors regardless on which monitor they are shown in the computer system.

Multi-Monitor Taskbar by Mediachance (via Shellcity) ends that by adding a unique taskbar to every computer monitor that gets connected to the computer system. Each taskbar is only displaying the folders and applications that are started in its boundaries which makes the file and folder management that much easier.

The free version of Multi-Monitor Taskbar comes with a few additional handy features like a move to monitor button in Windows XP. It is however limited in comparison to the commercial pro version which adds features like theme support or the ability to resize windows across multiple monitors.

The main function however is available in the free version and that’s probably all that most dual-monitor users need. The pro version comes as a Shareware trial which can be used to test the additional features to see if it’s worth the money.
