Desktop Cleanup Wizard
The Desktop Cleanup Wizard is a feature new to Windows®
XP. Over time our desktops can become cluttered with
shortcuts and program icons, leaving you nowhere to place
new things.
Windows® XP will now monitor your Desktop and every 60
days will prompt you to remove items that are no longer
used, or not used very often. This helps keep your Desktop
more manageable while you work.
How do I…
Run the Desktop Cleanup Wizard manually?
1. Right-click the Desktop and select Properties.
2. Click the Desktop tab and press the Customize
Desktop button.
3. In the Desktop Cleanup area click Clean Desktop
Now.
Turn off the Desktop Cleanup Wizard?
1. Right-click the Desktop and select Properties.
2. Click the Desktop tab and press the Customize
Desktop button.
3. In the Desktop Cleanup area remove the tick in the box
next to Run Desktop Cleanup Wizard every 60 days.
