    App Folders for Windows 10


    I really like the App Folders for MacOS and Linux. Is there any way I can port the feature to Windows 10? My desktop is really cluttered and I would like to organise them to Applications and Files. I don't want to create folders because I can't easily search for the App or File I need and I need to close the explorer window too.

    Any ideas?

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
