Desktop Restore is a Windows program that provides you with a quick solution for changing the arrangement of your desktop icons. The utility brings you easy-to-configure settings, immediately applies the needed changes, and uses minimum CPU resources while operating on your PC.

This application might prove to be of good use if you need to easily switch between various layouts of your desktop icons. For instance, you could have a desktop layout for work and another one for home.

The program's settings can be accessed by right-clicking anywhere on your desktop and selecting the app's name from the menu. Once you choose to restore desktop icon arrangement, the utility immediately applies the needed change.

You can save as many desktop layouts as you like and export them to your local directories.

The only thing I'd add would be an option to define a global hotkey for immediately restoring desktop icon arrangements. Still, this isn't a big deal as the program already offers you an easy way to restore desktop layouts. The hotkey setting would simply be faster.

In conclusion, you should give this free program a try if you're looking for an easy way to change the arrangement of your desktop icons.
