What is Partitions?
Partitions is the ultimate app to help you organize your desktop! Gone are the days of cluttered desktops with dozens (or even hundreds) of files. Using Partitions, you can create groupings of files and shortcuts right on your desktop.
Each partition acts as a desktop widget that you can resize, change the color or transparency, or modify the view of icons. By fencing in these icons and files into individual containers, your desktop has never looked so clean before!
PRO features allow you to browse to existing folders. It's just like having portals to multiple Windows Explorers right on your desktop.
Features: -Organize your desktop files, icons, and shortcuts -Create groupings for your files and shortcuts -Add multiple windows explorers on your desktop (Ex: create portals for Documents, Pictures, Downloads, etc) -Customize the font color, background, transparency, and size of each partition -De-clutter your desktop by moving all your files, icons, and shortcuts into containers -Navigate into folders and open links within each partition -Bring partitions to the foreground while you work -A free alternative to Stardock's Fences with optional enhancements

Partitions is a much more simplified program than
iTop Easy Desktop . Basically, it lets you set up new named folders, with a color background window on desktop that acts as a portal/shortcut to that folder. Simple can be better, but you are more limited in options in background color and transparency. Without shading, I find the colors garish. Folders are kept by default in the program's choice of location vs a place of your choice. It appears, however, that you can move the folder/portal.
"Partitions" are folder windows (no automatic grouping of desktop icons), similar to Portals - you have to keep taking new shortcuts from the desktop to the folders when software updates and adds the shortcuts again.
On latest Windows 11 updated to the day:
On the upside, when you double-click inside these "partitions" (let's call them containers) on a subfolder, it switches (opens into view) to that one inside that container, so that's a nice way of organizing many icons (especially since it will stay like that for the Windows session).
Another upside is the looks - the "partitions"/windows are a streamlined yet modern style, with translucency.
