It seems like you're looking to declutter your desktop, Drew! That's a great practice for better organization. Here are a few tips to help you achieve a cleaner desktop: 1. Create Folders: Organize your files into folders based on categories like work, personal, projects, etc. This helps in reducing the number of icons on your desktop. 2. Keep Only Essential Shortcuts: Only keep shortcuts to the applications or files you frequently use. Remove any unnecessary shortcuts. 3. Use Desktop Wallpaper: Choose a wallpaper that isn't too busy or distracting. This can make your desktop look cleaner even with icons. 4. Hidden Desktop Icons: You can hide all desktop icons with a simple right-click on the desktop, going to View, and unchecking the 'Show desktop icons' option. 5. Automate Organization: Consider using tools or scripts that automatically organize your desktop files into specific folders based on defined rules. By following these tips, you should be able to maintain a tidy desktop environment. Enjoy your organized workspace!
