    You can keep all the documents relating to your 2022 taxes in a subdirectory somewhere inside the Documents. For example, mine are located in Documents/Finances/Taxes/2022 . Why would one want them floating around on a cluttered desktop?

      Also desktop shortcuts Just delete the shortcut that leads from finances/taxes/2022 and change it to open your 2023 so you still have 2022 just incase

      A directory on my desktop. Why would I want all my stuff in a directory that isn’t visually navigable?

            Does the wallpaper make it more visually navigable? Because that’s certainly the only big difference in visuals between the desktop folder view and the view in Explorer. At least if you’ve got that set to icon view.

            I use it for temporarily storing files I’m actively working with. Anything else, especially long term storage I put in other directories.
