You are using up more and more of
your time to delete unwanted desktop
icons, to group the rest and to move
them together in a specific area of
your screen.
For Windows XP, Vista and 7, the
program Fences supports you in dividing
your desktop into areas and grouping
the various icons. Download the tool on
your system directly from www.stardock.com. Start the installation by double
clicking the file in Windows Explorer
and then follow the instructions of the
setup wizard. For that, you will definitely
require administrator rights. However,
if the user account control does not
open automatically, right click the file
and select the context command ‘Run
as administrator’. After the installation,
click ‘Start using Fences’. This option will
help you in the configuration of the tool.
Experienced users can also select ‘I want
to create my own Fences’ and configure
without help.
In the next step, Fences offers two choices. ‘Create different Fences’ generates two empty fields on your desktop. The icons will initially be located near the area on the desktop before they can be individually placed in them via drag and drop. For that, the ‘Sort out my icons’ option arranges your icons in the new generated fields. Then give the application the final touch via ‘Open Fences settings’. You can also access this dialog later by right clicking the desktop and via ‘Configure Fences’ context command.
You can move the icons from the desktop to a field or between two fields via Drag&Drop. You can generate a new field by right clicking on the desktop, keeping the key pressed and dragging the space. Then select the ‘Create new Fence here’ command in the next context menu and give it a name. You can change the position and size of the fields as in Windows dialogs. If you want a different name for a field, right click in the desired area of the desktop and select the ‘Rename Fence’ context command.
Double clicking any empty area on the desktop will now hide all Fences, and double clicking again will reveal them.
