If you ever thought that your Windows needs some tweaks and customization and didn't know how to do that, there is a solution to your dilemma: Winstep Xtreme.
This software makes your Windows experience more enjoyable by improving its appearance and its functions.
At first instance, the interface may be confusing because of its numerous functions spread around the desktop, the high amount of options and functionalities not being characteristic to default Windows. After a while, you'll get used to and you'll start enjoying the futuristic design and various desktop themes options.
What Winstep Xtreme does to your Windows is completely changing the look of your desktop by adding a new wallpaper, animations, and modifying the taskbar.
The result is a completely new desktop, one that is equipped with a Workshelf-for better organize documents, work projects, URLs, movies-, Modules, such as Clock, Battery monitor, Moon Phases, Weather monitor, Net and RAM Meters, and an improved Start Menu Organizer.
Moreover, you can create your own customized menus by using the drag&drop function, or you can "attach" menus to different areas of your desktop and applications.
In the end, the price you'll have to pay to enjoy these features is the increase of system resources...and 29.95$ for PRO version of the software.
