A Desktop is basically an organizational tool, it helps to specify overall settings for the workspaces and the overall look of MultiCharts.
A Desktop is a set of workspaces in one MultiCharts window. If you have a multi-monitor setup, you can save MultiCharts window layout on every monitor as a desktop and then when you launch MultiCharts next time just open a bunch of desktop files (you can open multiple files at once by selecting them all and pressing Enter) to get your setup back.  
Desktop is the state of your Main Window that includes:
* position and status (enabled/disabled) of the Main Window Toolbars;
* the list of the opened workspaces;
* position of the Main Window on the monitor screen.
Only 1 Desktop can be opened in 1 MultiCharts instance, but you can have multiple MultiCharts instances open with one Desktop each at the same time, and every Desktop can have a separate name and different settings.
It is possible to create, save, open, close, rename, and delete Desktops. Each Desktop can contain multiple Workspaces.
