How to Keep a Window Always on Top in Windows

(0 votes, average 0 out of 5)

Each iteration of Windows has welcomed some great functionality, but it still lacks an ability which can be very useful: keeping a window permanently visible.  Having a video or reference document visible can be great while trying to multi-task in other windows. Thankfully, third-party solutions exist to work around this problem.

All that is needed is a quick, simple download.  Download this utility from box.net, and unzip it somewhere easily accessible (such as your desktop).  Run the exectuable -- it will not be immediately obvious that anything is running, but this is only because it's an extremely simple, low-resource script.  Now, open any window you wish to keep permanently open, and press Ctrl+Space.  Now that window should be always on top!
