Our Uses
I was using the default desktop skin for a long time. And it wasn’t that much attractive. More than that my file and software allocation was rubbish. When I need something, to find them I had to go through the various files. But with the app, I was able to customize the desktop and other widgets. Because of that, my time consumption was reduced and I could find anything I needed with a single click. But there were some issues with running it, and sometimes the launcher skin won’t run on the first try.
