What is Desktop Resetter?
Desktop Resetter is a simple program used to remember the icon and window locations and sizes on the desktop. This information can be recalled at a later time. This is useful if you play games or change resolutions frequently. It is also good since some programs tend to either change resolution or somehow cause things on the desktop to scatter randomly. Crashing can also cause desktop items to splatter.
Now you won't have to withstand this unfortunate and annoying problem. Simply layout the desktop how you like it and 'Remember' the desktop's current setup. Should it get screwed up one way or another, just launch Desktop Resetter and 'Reset' the layout. In an instant, the windows should snap back to the way they were and their sizes will be recalled, and the icons will go back as well.
A nice benefit of Desktop Resetter is that it is very fast. You can keep a copy of it handy in the Apple menu or on the Desktop so that you can easily launch it and remember or reset the desktop instantly.
Desktop Resetter is an application only, it uses no extensions or control panels. This means that there is no way it can conflict with other programs, it only operates when you launch it and doesn't effect other applications other than the Finder itself (the desktop application).
