This question looks similar but that received no answers.
I installed two DE (enlightenment, pantheon) on Ubuntu. After that I see few differences on my default Desktop Environment.
I see colors of the windows has changed. Possibly, a good side effect is that it has become faster. Two Terminals appears in the application list.
Even two screenshot application.
Why it has happened? and do I have two applications or it is just customizations of same applications?
Using multiple DE at the same time can cause conflicts... you can read this to understand what I mean...
And the extra applications that you see after installation of the other DEs, they most possibly have come with the DE; a DE usually have some default bundle of programs/applications for various purposes. For example KDE has a bunch of applications installed by default- Ocular for reading Documents, Gwenview for viewing images and so on...
