Every user likes to keep their desktop icons well organized, everything in its place, but the truth is that no one is immune to being a victim of an inevitable icon mess ; however, the solution is simpler than it seems.

This is an application available in English and other languages ​​(not yet Spanish), but just as intuitive to use. In the previous screenshot we see the respective icons to save the pattern of the icons and restore them easily.
A useful and interesting feature of ReIcon is the ability to add an item to the context menu that allows access to icon restoration and saving options . To enable it, go to Options > Add Context Menu . There, you can define whether you want it to appear when you right-click on the desktop or on the Computer (My Computer) icon.
Tell them that both applications are free, do not require installation and are distributed for download in a Zip file of a few KB in size.
