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.

Demo of enabling dark mode on a window

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)

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.

Great for streaming
The Always-on-Top and the Opacity (window transparency) are features that I use. With multi-monitor setup, I was having to look over with each sound alert, missing some of the conversations or missing a important game play. Now, I just pop the chat window on to my gaming display and I'm able to interact even more with my viewers without blocking the game view. Thank you.

super functional
very easy to use, gives detailed descriptions on what does what, super easy to disable or enable functions you might or might not need, and lots of functions that i didnt expect to come bundled with the app when just looking for something to keep windows on top

Awesome app
The search is over for an app that handles every application theme I need it to for a dark conversion. I do lots of night work and this app let me make all these IDEs I work with dark themed! 🙂

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

Really Helps with trading software
Ok I do have 7 monitors but I am a "Swing market maker" 3-6mo plays on the stock market. Using TOS now, being able to detach option on various things making it transparent and disable on mouse over has really increased. Its like having think or swim layers that and you can do the same with websites like finviz, seeking alpha etc. This simple transparent until mouse over lets me watch charts while on the surface layer im interacting with im hunting for more stocks.

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 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.

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.

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.

This app has quickly turned into a necessity for my daily multitasking. Its especially useful for pinning the command terminal on top when I'm following various installation guides and Docs on GitHub etc. Thanks for such a cool free and brilliant app!

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.
