Aston transforms your Desktop into a gorgeous and efficient operating environment with advanced features. Along with basic shell components, there are widgets compatible with live wallpapers and multiple themes supported.
Every element of the theme, including the menu, desktop, and panels, can be tweaked and customized, creating a more convenient working area. Widgets push the limits of usability and customization even further, enabling you to know the weather forecast, your system resources, or anything else you want to monitor. They extend the start menu and panel's usability subtly but powerfully, and you have full control over how they are displayed, making your computing an enjoyable experience.
Aston is known to be one of the most stable Windows shells ever, and switching to it is easy because it incorporates everything you are already familiar with, but makes them more efficient. Its integrated search allows you to search through your local drive and the internet fast and conveniently. Aston is superior in almost every respect, starting from its supported operating systems (Windows XP/Vista/32 and 64-bit), multi-language support, to its animation capabilities that can be used for almost every element and every widget, achieving stunning effects.
In summary, Aston is beauty, style, and efficiency, and the desktop you deserved. Whether you're a designer or just looking for a more customizable desktop, Aston will surpass your expectations with its features and themes, increased speed, and stability. Get Aston today, and you won't look back!
