Desktop Cleanup Wizard for Windows 7<\/h2>\n

Unlike in Windows XP, Windows 7 or Vista, does not include a Desktop Cleanup Wizard<\/strong>, which kept track of your usage of the icons on your desktop and offered to remove the unused icons every 60 days.<\/p>\n

CleanDesktop<\/strong> is a small portable freeware app that will help you clean up your unused desktop icons, in Windows 7 & Windows Vista. This utility is for those who miss the wizard!<\/p>\n

On running it, it will scan & detect desktop items that have not been used in the last 30 days and list them down. You then have an option to delete them.<\/span><\/p>\n

The unused items are not deleted but moved to a folder on the Desktop, like in Windows XP:<\/p>\n

\n

C:\\Users\\username\\Desktop\\Unused Icons.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Alternatively, you can also opt to delete the unused items directly.<\/p>\n

It has been tested on Windows 7 & Windows Vista, 32bit\u00a0and 64bit versions, but should work on later versions too.<\/p>\n

\"Download\"<\/a><\/p>\n

CleanDesktop Utility<\/a> has been developed by Omkarnath<\/strong> and is being released through The Windows Club.<\/p>\n
