Multiple Desktops - not as expected, do I not understand purpose?

Another option is Stardock Fences, which allows you to create "fences" around your icons.

I've been a Stardock software user for several years and find "Fences" very useful. It is nice to see my desktop wallpaper uncluttered with icons. My icons are there but "invisible" until I place my cursor on a group.

I can hide my groups of icons and only see them when my cursor is over any particular grouping:

I always had the Task View button hidden but after playing about with Virtual Destops, since I read this thread, I have come to like it a lot. In fact, for me, it's the best new feature in Windows 10.

I never have any icons on the Desktop so that's not an issue.

And using Windows Key + Ctrl + Arrow to switch Virtual Desktops makes it very slick to operate.

I like the idea but functionality seems limited. I will go back and look again and experiment with this feature.
