A huge annoyance are the icons on the Windows 10 desktop. More precisely: the icons that spontaneously and suddenly appear elsewhere! That creates confusion. DesktopOK can fix the annoyance.
Under the influence
‘s desktop Windows 10 can be used in a variety of ways. One keeps the desktop clean, the other makes a mess of it. Furthermore, it’s not uncommon to use the desktop as a startup screen, placing the icons of your favorite apps in their own place. But then they have to change screen resolution, Windows 10 can just turn your desktop upside down. That’s not something to be happy about. Fortunately, there is a solution: DesktopOK!
Go to the website www.softwareok.com and get an installer of DesktopOK there in the 32bit or 64bit version. You can extract the zip file, as Administrator in front of All users install and immediately Dutch speaking to make!
Clean up desktop
Immediately after DesktopOK is installed, you can clean up and put your desktop in order. Place all icons where you want them. Forget the – automatic – sorting by Windows Explorer and do it completely the way you want. With the caveat that you do have the desktop icons aligned in a grid; that is so neat. Continue doing that until you are completely satisfied.
Stop time
The trick of DesktopOK is ‘being able to stop time’. Activate DesktopOK and click the button Save. This allows you to make a desktop recording of exactly this moment. The moment is thus captured for the current resolution of the desktop, with that resolution conveniently found in the name of the ‘snapshot’. Please note: an explicit distinction is therefore made between different resolutions. This is very handy for all laptop users who connect to a large screen at home or at work. So: different desktop layouts for different resolutions.
Turn back time
The trick of DesktopOK also has a follow-up: restore the snapshot. The moment your desktop is completely messed up again, you call on DesktopOK again. You select the previously saved moment and click on the button Put back. Voilà , your desktop is back in all its glory! Yes, it can be that simple.
Finally, we would like to draw your attention to the menu choice Options from DesktopOK. The program is fully loaded with all kinds of features that make saving and retrieving your desktop even easier. Be sure to take the time to play with those options.
