DeskStamp 1.0.1

Bug fix release.

• Fixed: switching language while a day folder already existed created a
  second folder for the same day. Day folders are now recognised by their date,
  regardless of the language they were created in.
• Fixed: Undo recent moves no longer triggers the Windows security prompt
  every time it is used.
• Improved: Reload exclusions now shows how many rules are active directly
  in the menu, instead of relying on a notification balloon.

Upgrading: replace the files, keep your exclusions.txt. Nothing else changes.

DeskStamp 1.0.0

Every day gets its own folder on your desktop.

The first time something new lands on your desktop, DeskStamp creates a folder
named after the day — 2026-09-08 Tuesday 8 September — and files everything
that follows into it. Tomorrow you open yesterday's folder to find what you were
doing, or delete the whole day in one move.

It runs from the notification area, next to the clock. No installer, no
administrator rights, no network access.

Install

1. Download Source code (zip) below.
2. Right-click the ZIP → Properties → tick "Unblock" → OK, before extracting.
   Extraction works either way; this just spares you the Windows security warning
   the first time you launch the program.
3. Extract the folder anywhere you like.
4. Tidy your desktop first: whatever is there when DeskStamp starts is never
   touched.
5. Run Start-DeskStamp.cmd.

Not ready to trust it yet? Run Dry-Run.cmd instead — it writes down what it
would file, without moving a single file.

In this release

• Daily folders, created on the first save of the day
• Waits for downloads to finish, and for programs to release documents they hold open
• Never touches shortcuts, hidden and system files, or anything already on the desktop at launch
• Leaves New folder alone until you rename it
• Undo, exclusions list, pause, and start with Windows
• English and Italian, switchable from the tray menu — add your own language by
  copying lang/en.txt, no code involved

Requirements

Windows 10 or 11. Nothing to install: DeskStamp is a PowerShell script, so you
can read exactly what it does before running it — start with DeskStamp-Core.ps1.
