Need A Multiple Desktop App

I need to run at least 5 separate desktops, viewable one at a time, or split screen.

I have had no luck with Mission control as it is a nightmare to set up and lock in.

I want my 5 desktops to be independent and select-able at all times.

Suggestions greatly approached. a2

 

Yes, happy to elaborate. 2012 mini 16g ram i5. Tech level here 5 of 10.
lol.

Like many areas of the OS I don't get Mission Control. I know there is something I'm missing here. A step ?

I can bring it up Via- Sys-Pref, or Comm/up arrow. Then can't make it run.

At times I can make the desktop boxes appear in the spaces top of the screen, but when I touch them, or try to move or fill these boxes, they disappear.

Apple support steps just cloud my mind, and I have done them over and over and they flat don't work. LOL

Like using CCC instead of TM, (I have used both), I'm hopping there is a simpler, stable app to replace MC, although my mind is still open on using MC. a2

 

That one looks pretty good, and priced right too. Thank you.

Also got an education on SIP. Often wondered what Fishrrman was always shutting down. LOL a2
