As soon as any of the devices or network drives are plugged out, the app removes the icon from the desktop. This way you can easily monitor when your mapped network drives are accessible to you. One interesting thing about the tool is that it detects when the mapped network folder is available and creates a shortcut on the desktop.
You could pin the fixed storage to desktop too, but that will not make any sense as you can create shortcut to any drive using the right-click context menu. If you want to mount removable USB drives and optical drives as soon as they are plugged into Windows check the option Removable and CD-ROM. The tool is very easy to use, simply check the options you want to enable. Double click on the tray icon to open the configuration Window. The tool will start minimized in the system tray. To get started, download and install Desktop Media on your computer and launch it. Today I will talk about a simple yet useful tool, Desktop Media that will bring this missing feature to Windows. This feature definitely eases the access in everyday computing, but it’s not available by default in Windows. Ubuntu used to automatically add external drive icons to desktop. After migrating to Windows however, one feature of Ubuntu I missed on a regular basis was the automatic display of new drive icons on desktop whenever a new media was plugged in. It was only those 6 months that I used Ubuntu on my personal laptop. I am not a regular Linux user and the only knowledge I have gained about Linux (Ubuntu) is from the 6th semester curriculum of my engineering studies.
