Both looks awesome to me. The blue one (your vehicle?) has the better rear view mirror (subjective), though... And the vehicle is shinier too (factual... unless blind )...My "flame blue" F150 is obviously gorgeous and yet my neighbor's plain Jane red F150 is downright ugly ugly ugly.

That's true, though my case is rather different. Every new file I downloaded or created would need to be placed in it's proper directory folder. I also move files around a lot, so I'm looking at Windows & folders more often than I would like to. And this sluggish (& rather ugly too) OS will one day break my spirit. Do I need more RAM? Is 4 GB not enough? Is my CPU not enough? *sigh*I used to be fussy about my desktop. But then I came to my senses. I mean how much time do you spend staring at your desktop? Once I fire up my browser, Word, or whatever app I'm using, the desktop is just something in the background. If anything, I want it to act like my computer case - that is, to just sit quietly and discreetly out of the way and NOT bring attention to itself. As long as I can easily find what I am looking for, then fine. And like every OS and OS version I have used before, once I get past the short learning curve, finding what I want is easy - even with W10.

Now wait. If you are looking at folders and and moving files about, then you are using File Explorer or some other file manager. That is, NOT the desktop and has nothing to do with the desktop, except, perhaps with how you start File Explorer. So again, once you fire up the app (in this case, File Explorer), the desktop moves into the background and even takes on a much lower priority in terms of system resources. And while the amount of RAM certainly affects file manipulation performance, it has nothing to do with the desktop's appearance - the topic here.so I'm looking at Windows & folders more often than I would like to.

place it in the upper right hand corner (where the close X is)
My app has way more useful features than any of your 100's of favorites.. Is my guess.And for those who have 100 favorite apps?
Pretty sure the problem is dealing with 10s or dozens of favorites apps and shortcuts, not 1 or 2.

Also, "Quick to stop it and to restart" just means that you're just fooling around with the app. Not a "useful feature".

Makes sense...It's called jamming it..
When randomly watching my videos... It may select one that I have seen recently... Soooo I kill it and restart it immediately with the defaults set to random and away it goes with the next one.
Random eliminates boredom PERIOD
