A desktop is the primary display interface on a computer, designed to emulate the surface of a physical desk. It typically includes various elements such as documents, tools, folders, and reference materials, offering users an organized and intuitive workspace. The desktop can either occupy the full screen or exist within a window, allowing flexibility in how users interact with their computer. Modern desktops also enable multitasking by allowing users to create and switch between multiple virtual desktops. This feature is particularly useful for managing different projects and work environments efficiently. It’s important to distinguish a computer desktop from a desktop computer. While the former refers to the digital workspace displayed on a screen, the latter describes a personal computer (PC) designed to be placed on a desk or table.
