    Saving multiple desktops


    I set up 3 distinct desktops to manage some work.
    I moved copies of files, etc.
    Everything working fine.
    Shut PC down for the night.
    When I turned PC on the next day, all of the desktops were empty!
    How do I save Desktops 2, 3 etc???

    :)

    Hi Bobby,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    Sorry for the inconvenience caused with Windows 10.

    Are you referring to multiple desktop from task view as mentioned in the below article?

    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/multiple-desktops-in-windows-10#

    If yes, please be informed that, If you open a lot of programs at once, this feature allows you to keep them organized.

    I.e., you can move apps between multiple desktops. Once you restart/sign-out, the applications on all these desktops will be closed. The opened files/programs will be closed.

    Hope the information helps. Do reply if you need further assistance.

    Thank you.

    Yes, I have my answer.

    If I understand correctly, multiple desktops are temporary features. Therefore, saving them

    for long-term reference is not an option.

    Thank you

    I know only about Windows 7, there, each user profile/account has one desktop; you might have to create three user profiles.
    "I set up 3 distinct desktops to manage some work..." exactly what did you do to set up three distinct desktops? I would like to learn from your experience.

    I was wondering what were the keyclicks, what were the steps, you took to set up 3 distinct desktops.
    Perhaps, together, we can formulate an action process to give you what you want *Smile
