You can automatically conceal desktop icons when opening new tabs, for instance in a browser on Windows 7. Check the system settings or use built-in tools like Task Manager or third-party utilities. If no native options exist, some applications offer shortcuts to achieve this effect.

Are you referring to the taskbar at the bottom? If yes, right-click it, select "Properties," then choose "Auto-Hide the Taskbar," and click "OK." Don’t worry about the image. What’s the purpose of this?

Avoid displaying icons on your desktop. Click the Desktop right-click and choose "Personalize." Go to the top left and select "Change Desktop Icons," then uncheck everything. Make sure no shortcuts or files are saved there for a tidy look.

You're mistaken. It's fine to keep your desktop organized without searching the start menu. If you remember any details from earlier, feel free to share them so I can help further. Right now, I don't have useful responses.

You might not have the answer right away, but you could organize your icons into a separate folder somewhere and link it to the taskbar. That way, the folder name appears on the taskbar, and clicking it opens a dropdown with all the icons. This keeps your desktop clear while making it easy to access everything.

Thank you for your suggestion. The main issue here is that finding the required icon would be difficult since everything would be mixed together. I could add more folders, but it would cause too much confusion from constant clicking.
