Just the other day I needed a program like that but I couldn\u2019t remember the name of the one she uses. But if I wrote her and asked her the name of it, she\u2019d make me beg and then accuse me of having dementia. Who needs the hassle? So I went off and found my own little program to keep a program window on top of all others \u2013 a program to make a window sticky.<\/p>\n<p>EB will be jealous. She uses some old clunky program from 1994 to make a program window sticky \u2013 i.e. stay on top of all others. Don\u2019t ask me the name of it, but she\u2019s constantly reminding me how much she uses it. When I went off to find my own program to keep a window on top off all others, I found a great one. It does only one thing. The very thing wanted it to do: it keeps a particular window (or windows) on top of all others.<\/p>\n<p>EB is jealous I can tell!<\/p>\n<p>DeskPins is kind of fun. It\u2019s like sticking a thumb tack into a program window &#8211;\u00a0 it sticks the window to your screen. And it\u2019s always on top no matter what else you open. It\u2019s handy when you\u2019re writing something or referring to something in one window and doing something in another. EB uses whatever program she uses all the time \u2013 and I will be using DeskPins. It\u2019s better than her old clunker, I bet!<\/p>\n<p>I really needed a program like DeskPins today and doggone it, I was NOT going to grovel around and beg EB. Ha! I found something fun and better than her old outdated 1994 model program.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m so proud. Want to see?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/thundercloud.net\/infoave\/images\/2011\/deskpins.png\" alt=\"Cloudeight InfoAve\" width=\"510\" height=\"416\" border=\"0\" hspace=\"21\" vspace=\"6\" \/><\/p>\n<p>See the red tack? I love this program. I\u00a0didn&#8217;t\u00a0have to beg EB.<\/p>\n<p>DeskPins is a tiny 64KB program that does only one thing: it makes a program window or windows sticky. And though the author does not list Windows Vista or Windows 7 \u2013 fear not. I\u2019ve tested it on Vista and on Windows 7 64bit. So I can say without a doubt it works with Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7 both 32bit and 64bit.<\/p>\n<p>The DeskPins developer (and it looks like he hasn\u2019t touched his site since ought-two) says this:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cDeskPins can be used to make any application topmost, that is, to keep it above all other windows. Just grab a pin from the DeskPins icon in the system notification area (a.k.a. taskbar tray) and click on any window. This functionality is identical to the \u201cAlways on Top\u201d setting found in some programs. With DeskPins you can add this feature to any program!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.softpedia.com\/progDownload\/DeskPins-Download-23124.html\"><u>Make your windows sticky with DeskPins.<\/u><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EB has a little program she likes that keeps a program window on top of all other windows.
