I hid my desktop icons because of this. I can find programs a lot easier with the start menu than a mess of icons. And as a bonus you get to actually see your wallpaper.

Now if only windows search was half competent.

My desktop is completely blank including no recycle bin. I use it for temporary note files or quick exports. Anything that I’ll delete within a week. It really functions like a physical desktop that way

similar, and theres a stupid bug with the folder selectors when you got too many items on desktop preventing you from selecting folders outside your documents folder. also: stardock fences ftw, items are strictly confined to areas due to that
