Ultimate Window Manager for Windows Multitasking

WindowTop is a powerful Windows window manager and productivity tool that lets you keep any window always on top, create floating Picture-in-Picture (PiP) windows, adjust window opacity and transparency, and easily manage multiple windows with Anchors.

Whether you want to overlay transparent windows while working, watch videos while gaming, or reduce eye strain with Dark Mode, WindowTop gives you full control over your Windows desktop multitasking. Start using it for free and unlock advanced features with the Pro version!

Always on Top – Keep Windows Visible While You Work

Keep any window always on top of others and highlight it with a customizable colored border. Easily adjust frame color, thickness, and behavior from the Always on Top settings — perfect for multitasking, monitoring apps, or staying focused while working.

Picture-in-Picture (PiP) & Crop — Watch and Work with Any Window

Easily watch videos or monitor any window while working using Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode. You can interact directly with PiP windows, keep them floating above your work, and even crop specific areas of the window to focus only on what matters.


Update: Since 5.29, we have added support in Crop to automatically detect crop regions (see the second tab)

Anchors – Instantly Access Windows with One Click

Need faster access to your windows? Anchors let you instantly bring windows to focus with a single click — faster than ALT+TAB and perfect for touchscreens. Instead of keeping windows always on top, use Anchors to quickly reopen minimized or background windows.


Anchors automatically avoid covering text or images by smartly repositioning themselves on your screen.

Opacity with Click-Through – Work Seamlessly Over Transparent

Enable click-through on transparent windows to interact directly with content behind them. Perfect for designers, artists, or anyone tracing, copying, or referencing elements on screen.

Opacity Control – See Through Windows While You Work

Adjust window transparency to see background content while working. Opacity Control lets you overlay windows, compare designs, write code, or follow tutorials without constantly switching windows.

Auto-Move for PiP – Stay Focused, Avoid Distractions

Picture-in-Picture mode includes an Auto-Move feature that intelligently repositions the window to avoid covering important text or images on your screen.

Dark Mode – Reduce Eye Strain at Night

Switch to Dark Mode and reduce screen brightness when working at night or in low-light environments. Apply dark theme even for apps or windows that don’t natively support it.


Note: Stable on Windows 11. May be unstable on Windows 10.

Glass Mode – Smart Transparency with Adjustable Blur

Glass Mode offers advanced transparency control, allowing you to separately adjust opacity for window backgrounds, text, and images. Customize the blur level for a modern, glass-like visual effect. Optimized for NVIDIA GPUs with CUDA acceleration.


Note that this may work slowly on 4K and will work better for NVIDIA GPUs (make use of CUDA feature)

Fastini says it's great
So it must be. Actually for many years I was trying to find this sort of technology. There used to be 1 called the double vision and it faded out, it's kind of hard to describe what this thing does until you experience it. It's incredible and I'm shocked that it's not more popular.

It's Pretty Great, Honestly
Being able to put a window at the forefront of my screen makes it easier to handle multiple tasks, especially when I need to go back and forth a lot. It reduces the need for me to save up and buy a second monitor too.

Very Useful app
I'm not sure why most apps in 2025 don't have their own Stay-on-feature, but until they do, I'll be using WindowTop. It does exactly that and whole lot more. Solid product.

Love it on my multi monitor setup
I have a lot of small windows open with an animated background and love that I can have the opacity of my windows set so you can still see the windows and the beautiful background plus it gives my space a futuristic feel.

It's just what I wanted
I wanted an app that allowed me to control the opacity of any app. This does the job. Also, the "glass" version of some apps just perfect.

An Essential Tool for Single-Monitor Multitasking
I discovered WindowTop several years ago after watching a friend on Discord effortlessly pin a video on top of their game screen. I immediately had to ask what software they were using, and it has been an everyday utility for me ever since. WindowTop is an absolute lifesaver for anyone who lacks a second monitor but frequently needs to keep a video (like a tutorial or stream) or important information visible while running another application in fullscreen mode. The core functionality—being able to "pin" any window so it floats above all other programs—is invaluable for maximizing screen real estate and multitasking efficiency. While I can sometimes find the process of activating and positioning the window a little tedious or fiddly to get just right, the immense utility and convenience it provides far outweigh these minor drawbacks. If you game, work, or stream on a single display, WindowTop is an indispensable tool that I highly recommend.

Works great. Simple and unintrusive.
This app will allow you to keep any window you want on top of other windows. I use it to keep notepad or sticky notes on top when they contain a code snippet or credentials I need to accomplish a task and I want it to stay on top of a window that I need maximized. Try it out.

Blows my mind
The fact that this isn't built in to everything is crazy. This app works amazing, keep finding new uses every day.

Works very well for looking at overlapping maps
I use this for some volunteer work to help assess maps for community outreach planning. It's really useful to be overlap to browsers each with a dynamic map.

super cool
Whenever I'm designing anything, WindowTop makes it very easy to just put up a window of a reference right next to my work. Sometimes I want my notes app on my screen at all times and I know that I can just boot up WindowTop and it'll help me. It's very handy, the only thing I could possibly critique is that some of the keybinds somewhat clash with other keybinds when I play games, so my screen will suddenly go opaque out of nowhere, but either way I am a big fan

This product does exactly what i wanted it to do with a simple and straight forward interface that does not clutter the standard windows interface - watch TV while im playing games 😀

Great app. If you're looking for a modern versions of Always On Top and Peek Through, this app replaces both of them, and has better controls.

Amazing and unique
It's both. And that's all I have to say about it: worth the money.

Does what it says on the tin
Simple, reliable, stable. I've definitely put this thing through its paces with multiple layered transparent click-through windows and the resource overhead above and beyond the windows themselves was trivial. The featureset is small, focused, and very configurable for a variety of use cases.
