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)

Works as advertised. It forces windows to stay on top.
I just use the app to pin a visual timer on top of my other windows. That function is available in the free version you can set a hotkey (Alt+Z by default) to toggle the feature on and off for a given window.

Great multipurpose app for a variety of projects.
I originally installed WindowTop to use overlay a ruler for a game I really liked to play that required it, but didn't have one implemented. After awhile my use of the app evolved to using the "Set Top" and "Opacity" features for timers, watching videos, drawing art, editing/working on spreadsheets, etc. It really helps me maximize the space and potential of my two monitors for whatever I'm doing.

Fantastic functionality!
The options are very useful to help track what is going on in the background, while more default selections to effect all fields the same way without further manipulation would be great this adds a functionality to the windows interface I felt was very lacking, a great piece of software!

Good and practical
This app has been my main app especially since I have only single monitor. I can write notes on a different files without having to alt+tab to other. Very practical and easy to use
