I never looked into using Virtual Desktops until I started spending more and more time throughout the week on a laptop.

Some keyboard shortcuts make the process much faster.

Create new virtual desktop

Windows Key + CTRL + D

Switch between virtual desktops

Windows Key + CTRL + Left or Right (arrow key)

Close current desktop

Windows Key + CTRL + F4
