DeskMakeover

The desktop studio for Windows.

Nine hand-tuned looks for every icon. Organizer zones drawn on your wallpaper. A snapshot before anything changes, so one click puts it all back.

Real desktop. Real restore. Rendered live.

01 · PROOF

Real pixels, before and after

No mockups. Both frames are the same desktop, shot from the app: 126 icons restyled in one click, and one click back. Drag the line.

A default Windows desktop crowded with mismatched icons
The same desktop after DeskMakeover: every icon in the Squircle look

02 · LOOKS

Nine looks, hand-tuned

Each look was tuned on a real, crowded desktop, not a demo folder. Pick one and every icon puts it on. Shape, coloring, plate, finish, and shortcut mark stay adjustable on their own.

03 · ZONES

Zones drawn on your wallpaper

Translucent panels that live inside the wallpaper itself, so your desktop gets rooms: apps here, work there, current projects front and center.

Templates or freehand

Start from a ready layout like Workbench or Quadrants, or draw your own. Five materials, four title styles.

Baked in, not floating

Zones render into the wallpaper image. Nothing runs in the background to keep them there.

One click removes them

Your original wallpaper is kept as shot. Bring it back whenever.

04 · STUDIO

A studio, not a settings page

The live desktop mirror on the left is your actual desktop, and every control on the right answers instantly. Hold space to compare with the original at any time.

Per-type styling

Programs, folders, and files can each wear their own variant.

Undo, redo, re-read

Full history, plus a one-click re-read of the real desktop: icons, arrangement, wallpaper.

Save and share styles

Keep your combinations in the style library, export them as files, import packs from friends.

ENGINE

Not a filter. An engine that reads your icons.

Behind every look is a purpose-built, fully deterministic pixel pipeline. It studies each icon before touching it, and renders byte-identical pixels in the browser and on the desktop.

06 · FAQ

Questions people ask

Can DeskMakeover break my PC, or leave me stuck?

No. DeskMakeover snapshots the Windows desktop (icons, shortcut arrows, wallpaper) before changing anything, and every change is one click to undo, back to exactly how it was. Experiment freely.

Will it slow my computer down?

Not noticeably. DeskMakeover does the heavy work once when you hit apply. The rest of the time it sits quietly and puts your look back if Windows resets the desktop.

Is it really free? What is the catch?

DeskMakeover is free and MIT-licensed, with the source on GitHub. It runs only on your machine: no account, no telemetry, nothing uploaded.

Does it work on macOS or Linux?

No. DeskMakeover is built for Windows 10 (1809 or newer) and Windows 11, 64-bit.
