    How to Open all minimized windows (with multiple Workspaces active)?


    I use multiple workspaces (desktops?) in Win 10 to keep content segregated. Sometime I have several windows open in a single workspace, but minimized.

    Sometimes I want to open all minimized windows (FireFox and/or Opera) in a single workspace with a single key stroke or combination.

    Extensive googling has found many options, none of which work. I can only assume that these are intended for users with a single workspace?

    Any assistance appreciated

    I used Macro Express Pro. (Not a free application)
    But there are other free applications like that one.

    It is a program that runs macros on your computer. You may set any key combination (other than Windows pre-set key combinations), that allows you to run certain scripts.

    In Macro Express, you can set a layout to open many programs, minimized. Yet I'm not too sure about running all your programs in a certain Desktop. You can make the Desktop you want as the active Desktop, then run the command.

    That's just an idea.

    Does MS not have an embedded command that will do this? WinKey + ??
