    It's not possible to have different set of icons on each virtual desktop. It's not even possible to have different wallpapers on each of them without third parties..what a shame!

    Truly virtual

    Since there is nothing to virtualize right now, this is a truly virtual topic. Anyone care to theorize on how easy it will be to virtualize 9? It's late 2020 and you can't still have truly separate virtual desktops on your win10! :)

    Virtual desktops

    In the article you linked it says talks about 4 goals Microsoft has with virtual desktops:

    • Give you more desktop space to group related windows
    • Help you quickly locate and switch to any window or group of windows
    • Let you easily re-organize your groups and move windows as tasks evolve
    • Keep you in control of the degree of separation between your grouped windows
    Not being able to control what desktop the program opens on really doesn't fit in with these goals.

    Give me one good reason for why it is suppose force me to change virtual desktop when I open a program, just one good reason and I will consider to drop the issue. To me this sounds like virtual desktops isn't ready yet and you refuse to acknowledge that
    there are bugs, because this makes it very hard to work with multiply virtual desktops.

    A separate wallpaper for each virtual desktop in Windows 10

    Is it possible that in future Windows updates, developers add such feature as the ability to install a separate wallpaper for each virtual desktop?

    I think this would be a useful property that helps to divide virtual desktops into categories and at the same time helps quickly navigate - which desktop I'm currently in.
