    Is there a feature where you could save a "preset" of your homescreen to re-use later?


    I'm wondering if there's a way I could save a preset of my current homescreen layout with all the app arrangements, wallpapers and stuff. I feel it would be really cool if there were! But if there isn't, do you guys happen to know an alternative?

    To further explain, I'm looking for something like a software that lets you make a custom preset you could click to load up a layout you once used on your homescreen, like a reusable interactive screenshot.

    changing Homescreen options

    I might be wrong, but I think OP is talking about Desktop and OneDrive Protected Folders. If so, Desktop folder icon in File Explorer > This PC will show OneDrive's cloud-like icon:

    Do the following to change it:

    Right click OneDrive icon in notification area:

    A small pop-up window opens. Select Settings:

    Settings will open. Under Auto-save tab, select Update folders:

    Click Stop protecting:

    Confirm:

    That's it. Your desktop is now empty, OneDrive desktop no longer shown and you can put anything you want to on desktop.

    Multiple displays preset

    Hello Bojan,

    I'm Jin, a fellow Windows 10 user and an independent advisor. I understand that you want to save different display settings like a preset so you can conveniently switch from another.

    I myself is using 2 monitors and 1 TV that I rearrange depending on my need. Sadly, the feature or option that we are both looking for is not available. The best thing we can do right now is to make these arrangement manually every time.

    Thus, I recommend you send a feedback or suggestion using the Feedback Hub app. The more of us looking for a feature the better chance of it getting added into Windows.

    Best regards.
