It enhances your desktop by allowing you to drag objects directly on and off the desktop window. Launch applications easily by pointing and clicking, or by dropping a document, on an application object. Installation, operation, and registration instructions are provided online in the help file desktop.hlp. The setup program can be run from the hard drive or from floppy. The files desktop.exe and desktop.hlp must be in the same directory as the setup program. If you decide not to use Drag and Drop Desktop, you can also use the setup program to remove the software, leaving your computer just as it was before installation. Note that the desktop control panel is normally hidden to provide a completely clean desktop. The control panel is accessed by clicking the right mouse button anywhere on the desktop window. The setup program creates several default desktops that contain all of the applications supplied with Windows NT. The setup program does not create objects for other applications already installed on your computer. Use the File, Import command to create objects for other applications.
