Clean Desktop Wizard
Another feature of Windows XP is the Desktop Cleanup Wizard. The
wizard runs 7 days after you first start your computer and every 60 days after
that. The Desktop Cleanup Wizard first opens a dialog box informing you
that there are unused icons on the desktop and asking whether you want to
run the wizard. If you elect to run the wizard, it places unused desktop icons
in the folder C:\Desktop Icons.
The default for the Desktop Cleanup Wizard is on. To turn the wizard off:
1
Right-click anywhere on the main desktop screen and click Properties.
2
Select the Desktop tab and click Customize Desktop.
3
In the Desktop cleanup options make sure that the Run Desktop
Cleanup Wizard every 60 days box is not checked.
You can run the Desktop Cleanup Wizard anytime by following these steps:
1
Right-click anywhere on the main desktop screen and select
Properties.
2
Click the Desktop tab and click Customize Desktop.
3
Click Clean Desktop Now.
