Description
CW Desktop Grid is a customizable Windows desktop organizer designed to give you fast access to the files, folders, images, and locations you use most.
Instead of searching through File Explorer or filling your desktop with ordinary shortcuts, CW Desktop Grid lets you create a visual grid of large, easy-to-recognize tiles. Add folders to the main grid, create dedicated drag-and-drop destination folders, use images and quotes as tile backgrounds, and customize the overall appearance to match your desktop.
You can open folders directly inside CW Desktop Grid, browse their contents, and drag files into other saved folders without constantly switching between windows.

Visual Customization

Images can be displayed as full tile backgrounds, and multiple photos can be added to create rotating slideshow tiles.
Built-In Folder Browsing
Open supported folders directly inside CW Desktop Grid without immediately launching a separate File Explorer window.
For folders containing thousands of files, CW Desktop Grid begins displaying content first and continues loading additional items progressively instead of making you wait for the entire folder to finish processing.
Drag-and-Drop Organization
Create a dedicated row of destination folders at the bottom of the folder browser. Files displayed above can be dragged directly into these folders, making common file-organization tasks faster and easier.
