An event to toggle a screen state of a screen of a desktop environment can be detected. The desktop environment can include a set of screens. Screen states of the screens can include a minimized screen state and a restored screen state. The minimized screen state can be a state in which all windows associated with the screen have a minimized window state. The restored screen state can be a state in which at least one window associated with the screen has an open display state. An open display state can include a maximized window display state or an adjusted window display state. The screen state of the screen of the desktop environment can be toggled responsive to the detected event without affecting a screen state of other ones of the set of screens.
