# DesktopSorter
Desktop Application written in C# that sorts and cleans your Desktop by doing the following:

1. Groups all files, by extension-type, then moves the files to a folder named by said type (jpg, mp3, exe, etc).
2. Then, moves any folders less than 1 Gig in size, to a main folder named, "\_DesktopSorterFolders".
3. Lastly, it stores all of these new folders and files, into a Main folder on your desktop named, "DesktopSorter".
4. You can then run this program 'backwards' which places everything back onto the Desktop.
