To open the Fences configuration window, right-click your Windows desktop and select the “Configure Fences” command. Next, we’ll set up some organization rules. How to Automatically Organize Your Desktop Icons To remove a fence, hover your mouse cursor over it and click the “x” icon at the right side of the fence’s title bar. But, if you want automatic organization, continue on. macOS Mojave doesn’t allow you to do this.
You can arrange your own Fences manually by dragging and dropping icons from your desktop into various fences, if you like. Position the fences wherever you want them on your desktop by dragging and dropping their title bars. For example, we could create fences for “Documents,” “Programs,” and “Music & Video” files. Repeat this process to create additional fences for different file types.
For our purposes here, we’re going to create fences that correspond to the different types of files we want to organize. Of course, you can create fences to organize your desktop however you like. For example, if we want a fence that will contain all our downloaded images, we could name it “Images,” “Pictures,” or “Photos.”
