    Display Fusion vs. Actual Window Manager


    Has anyone used either Display Fusion or Actual Window Manager? Or Both? How do the programs compare in terms of stability and features? Meaning, is one lighter, integrates into Explorer better or is more compatible? In terms of software capabilities, is one more feature rich with useful tools, than the other? Opinions are welcome. Thanks!

    Actual Window Manager
    - yes, I use this- got a low cost license some years ago.
    No obvious overhead, adds a whole range of useful extensions. There are lower cost cut down subsets of features.
    Full license is relatively expensive.

    If you just want the titlebar buttons, try Extra Buttons (free).

    Display Fusion appears to focus on muliple monitors - I've not used those features in AWM..
