Pickets 1.0.2 explains up front that Pickets never moves your files. The app itself is unchanged from 1.0.1.

Download

  • PicketsSetup.exe — recommended; per-user installer with optional desktop shortcut and launch at login. Installing over an earlier version keeps your layout.
  • Pickets.exe — portable app; keep it in a permanent folder before creating shortcuts.
  • SHA256SUMS.txt — checksums for both downloads. GitHub build provenance is available for both executables.

Requires Windows 10 version 1809 or newer, or Windows 11 (x64). No administrator access or separate .NET installation is needed. Downloads are unsigned; see verification guidance.

How Pickets treats your files

Pickets changes how your desktop looks, not where your files live. Nothing is moved, copied, or renamed. When you drop a desktop icon into a picket, the file stays in its original folder and File Explorer shows it exactly as before. Pickets only hides that icon from the desktop and shows it inside the picket. Choose Quit Pickets and every icon goes back to the exact spot it came from.

Changed

  • The installer's notes page now opens with the explanation above, and so does the README.

Validation

All 133 automated tests passed. The release workflow built both downloads and passed the uninstall recovery check.
