Did the right-click, properties, thing on my Desktop to remove the My Documents and Network Places item/icon form my Desktop. It works for the Windows desktop but those items are still visible on the Opus Desktop (lister pane).
How do I "turn those off"?
If you just want to see the files on your desktop, and not all the other icons or the files in the All Users profile, then you can just go to /desktopdir instead of the Desktop and avoid the hassle.
Otherwise I think there are registry keys to hide things from the Desktop virtual-folder but I'm not sure whether Opus respects all of them, nor what they are (nor whether they're the same for all versions of Windows). If you need them shout and I'll see if I can find out, but give /desktopdir a try to see if that's what you want.
Excellent. Option #1 works just fine. Thanks!
