In the W8 calc used in W10 as described in previous post, there is no
"always on top" option in this calculator also, so if you have many
windows opened, and you want to take data from those windows to enter in
this calculator, this calc window will hide when you go to other window,
that is inconvenient.

To solve that,
Go to https://efotinis.neocities.org/deskpins/

download and install Deskpins, current version is v1.32
(don't use earlier versions downloaded from elsewhere as they don't work
in w10, though they will work in other OS, if you need this additional
functionality in other Windows 7-8-XP etc.

it will sit on systray.

open Calc window by clicking its icon on taskbar

go to systray, LEFT click on deskpin icon

the cursor will change to a deskpin special cursor denoting you are now
in "pinning" mode.

move cursor and click anywhere on calc window.
the PIN will appear on calc Window title, and now the w8.1 calc window
will remain always on top in W10.

This way, you can use deskpins to make any window "always on top."

If you want to remove "always on top" from any window, just click on
that pin icon that appears on that window's title bar.

Thanks
