Users who have devices with Windows 11 Enrolled in Windows Insider Program, have noticed that Microsoft has not deliver major changes and no longer brings new features. It is almost clear sign that a package of major updates will be prepared with new features of Windows 11, but which is not ready. Neither for Windows Insider Preview nor for Dev Channel.
What is Deskop App Folders on Windows 11
For many years, about Windows XP and until Windows 10, Microsoft did not understand that the architecture of the operating systems should have the productivity and quick access to utilities and applications.
With Windows 10, various solutions were sought for the operating system to be more like users and focus on productivity. We added new workspaces, new shortcuts to folders and applications, plus many other features present on Windows 10 and especially on Windows 11.
Desktop App Folders is not a feature confirmed by Microsoft, but it was observed during the April 2022 Microsoft event. The company only said that it intends to provide Windows 11 to add folders with applications to the start of Menu.
folder “Social media” From the image above, it seems to contain shortcuts of social applications installed on the operating system. At the same time we observe productivity applications such as: Excel, PowerPoint and Mail that are not grouped in a folder.
This folder with applications would be a welcome feature, which would help a lot to keep clean and a good organization of the workspace. We all know that the desktop often gathers working files and especially shortcuts of the applications installed on the system. Desktop App Folder should be an automatic organization of folders, depending on the destination of Fică.
Similar feature on other operating systems
The idea would not be new. Apple has introduced for some time app library on iPados and iOS. A dedicated page in which the folders of the applications installed on the system are found, where the sorting is done automatically and in which the user cannot intervene.
Mac users have both Launchpad, a dynamic panel in which all applications are and can be created manually in which they are sorted by categories.
For desktop there is the option of automatic file grouping according to their type, in “stacks”. A kind of bookstore that gathers the same types of the desktop in one place, and will extend them to a simple click.
We hope that Desktop App Folders will materialize and become a feature of Windows 11.
It would help a lot to maintain a clean and organized workspace.
