What’s on your desktop?
Rainmeter allows you to display customizable skins on your desktop, from hardware usage meters to fully functional audio visualizers.
You are only limited by your imagination and creativity.
- Rainmeter in particular is very popular for it’s wide variety of skins (including some which mimic macOS) and the ease with which one can make their own Rainmeter skins. Just like an Android interface, you can change backgrounds and have the ability to add widgets which can give you information about your PC and your surroundings.
Pros: You getting a more beautiful desktop with gimmics
Cons: Rainmeter eats your RAM, so you don’t have many Free RAM left. However, it can use quite a bit of system resources if you have too many skins loaded.
