it doesn't make much difference on a PC ... and with W10 you can have multiple desktops so plenty of room for expansion

On a Mac, adding too many items to the desktop can affect performance

Doesn't having loads of shortcuts slow down your computer? I have 6.

that's because if I'm sending on an invoice to someone I always send it to the desktop and then forget to delete it until my desktop gets full
