Releases Groupy v1.4, Brings Improved Tabbed Experience to Windows Desktops

Version 1.4 adds support for new Curtains app, expands max tabs, and makes other major improvements Plymouth, MI – August 6, 2020 – Software developer Stardock released a new version of its ​ popular Windows desktop enhancement utility, Groupy™​, today. Groupy lets Windows users ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ group their desktop windows together in tabbed groups as easily as browsers group websites

® ® ® together, easily combining programs from Microsoft ​ Office, all the way to Adobe ​ Photoshop ​ o​ r ​ ​ ​ ® Premiere ,​ and more. ​

"Windows users get the experience they’ve been waiting for with Groupy," said Brad Wardell, ​ ​ CEO of Stardock. "Tabs are essential to the online browsing experience, so it made sense to bring this functionality to the rest of Microsoft Windows."

Version 1.4 improves the grouping user experience by adding Curtains style support. If a ​ ​ Curtains style doesn’t include custom Groupy parts, Groupy will automatically select colors to ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ match the style on its own. v1.4 also increases the max tabs in a group from 25 to 50, and enables additional functionality for the middle mouse-button in Explorer so that users can now open ​ folders as new tabs, just like in a browser. ​

Groupy works on Windows 10, 8, and 7. Once installed, creating groups with the app is simple: ​ drag a window to another window, which combines into a single window, with tabs showing in the title bar. To ungroup apps, drag the tab off the group.

Users can also create saved groups of apps and sort tabs by task or function easily. Once a ​ ​ group is created, quickly switch between different windows using a hotkey or clicking on the tab. Groupy can also automatically add launched programs into an existing tab group. ​

Groupy is the feature that’s been lacking in the Windows experience, and is available through ​ Stardock or Steam for $4.99. ​ ​ ​
