Does anyone (power users) really use the desktop anymore? Since moving back to windows, I've mostly used the taskbar and PowerToys Run to launch applications, and explorer to find files.
- laserdancepony 4y agoI’ve not been using desktop icons for decades, maybe W98 was the last time. I have never been fond of the cluttering ever since, especially on the larger displays (SVGA does not lend itself to many icons anyway). To run things on Windows nowadays I mostly use the Alt+Space applet that comes with PowerToys.
