I was sick of having tons of icons on my desktop so I wrote this little program in around a hour to swap out your Desktop with a new one, and back again if you like.

If you want this to start on windows, do that your self.

Simply press Ctrl+PageUp and Ctrl+PageDown to change each page, you can have a max of 99 different Desktops, because the real time icon generation.

Bare in mind, I made this in a hour, there will be problems, you have the source, fix it your self. This is just a prof of concept for a larger project.

You don't understand, if the user loses the data saved, he/she will reset their desktop. Changing the location of the exe file resets the default settings, and then you have lost your default desktop.

So please, leave my thread.

How are you not able to understand anything? Are you "Only3" years old?

You're making it seem as if your opinions have any value here. You would just write shit that makes no sense.


* - Hunting Rifle - Aug 13, 2014

Yeah. This is the internet, no one gives a flying fuck about your opinion.

Will definitely try this out tomorrow.
I was thinking can I make a kind of keybinding like ctrl + 1 to go to desktop 1 or something?

You can do that with this, just register the key, and set it, you have the source, do what you like with it.
