Turn Your Windows Desktop From Cluttered To Useful For Free With Fences

I'd like to start this post with a small request: Hit Win+D for me. I'll wait here. Go ahead, do it. Okay, done? What did you see? Was it a hot mess of cluttered icons for every application that felt like throwing its icon on the desktop when you installed it? Or perhaps you've given up on desktop icons altogether, opting to just hide them all so your wallpaper shows through in its full glory?

The good news is that Microsoft has simplified the different editions of Windows in Windows 8 – gone are the Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium, and Ultimate editions.
