CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
One of the most frustrating parts of sharing a Windows profile is having other people mess with your carefully arranged desktop icons. DIManager solves this problem by saving your icon layout and allowing you to restore it in a reasonable number of clicks. The program also lets you quickly change the desktop background and default icons. On the minus side, the interface looks amateurish and is entirely in German. However, if you don't mind those quirks, DIManager may save a lot of time--not to mention your nerves.Publisher's description
From PiX-ART.com :DesktopIconManager, called DIManager, is a helpful tool for saving the current position of your desktop icons in profiles for different resolutions. After changing your resolution or reinstall you can load your favorite profile to set your icons into the old position.

Version: DIManager 6.5.1 build 192
"English menus are included! Excellent program!"
Pros: saves icon positions for each resolution change. Useful because remote desktop accesses from systems with smaller screen sizes will rearrange icons to fit onto smaller screen
Cons: Initially menus in german, but english is a choice if you can find it (not too difficult, just click on wrench icon, then sprachen (language) and select english.

Version: DIManager 6.5.1 build 192
Cons: I can't use it. It seems to place most of the icons where they were but it misses a few. Maybe it has a limit like 128 icons. I have about 145 icons give or take a few during the day.

"I think this program is fantastic."
Pros: It seems to me that my Desktop Icon placement gets messed up quite often. (changing monitor resolutions, trying out new programs, and sometimes for no reason at all) DIManager will put the icons right back where you had them. It doesn't confuse DIManager if you have added or deleted icons either. This program is small and simple and even though it will add itself to your tray (by the clock) you can just exit it untill you need to restore your icon placement again.
Cons: It may be too simple for some.
You should try "Iconoid" as well. It's also free and it has five or six other tricks that it will do. I never used any of "Iconoid's" other gadgets and personally prefer the simplicity of DIManager.

Cons: no use for most genral users.
you mostly update icons so it finally turns out to be of no use at all.
