Moving a program with you to another virtual desktop

See original GitHub issue

One of the thing I’ve found lacking ever since I started using the virtual desktops is the ability to move a window with you while moving to another virtual desktop.

Currently, we can move to another desktop using the shortcut ctrl + win + left/right, I feel like a shortcut along the lines of ctrl + win + alt + left/right could be used to make the current active window move with you to the next desktop

I have no idea if this fits as a powertoy, please tell me if it doesn’t !

You can already do this with the standard virtual desktop, right click the window in the tab switcher and select show this window on all desktops.

An existing alternative to virtual desktop enhancer, MoveToDesktop, is not archived, though it is limited to this one virtual desktop feature (move window hotkey). For me it’s indispensable, and would be great to have the feature natively!
