Desktop icons

[Dynamo1920]

How do I remove the desktop icon from the desktop for a synchronisation job but retain the synchronisation job in the open menu.
I have several synchronisation jobs and each one has an icon on the desktop. I will soon have a cluttered desktop.

If those desktop-icons are (just) shortcuts to your real *.ffs_gui or *.ffs_batch FFS sync configuration files, you can simply delete those desktop icons.

If your *.ffs_gui or *.ffs_batch FFS sync configurations files are saved/stored on your desktop itself, you should move those files to some other, self selected location.
But then your GUI list of configurations won't work anymore.
You can simply open the sync configurations in the FFS GUI from/in their new location, and over time (once you have opened all configurations) your GUI list will work as you were used to.
If that list is very important to you, you can close the/all FFS GUI(s) and open the GlobalSettings.xml -file with a suitable (plain) text editor. In that GlobalSettings.xml file, you will find a section

<MainDialog>
<SearchPanel [Somedata]/>
<ConfigPanel [SomeData]>
<Configurations [SomeData] LastSelected="C:\Users\[UserName]\Desktop\SyncSettings.ffs_gui">
<Item [SomeData] Config="C:\Users\[UserName]\Desktop\MySyncSettings.ffs_gui" ... />

There will be multiple <Item ... /> entries.
Change the LastSelected location in <Configurations ... />, and the Config location in all <Item ... /> entries, matching the new location of your *.ffs_gui and/or *.ffs_batch files, and save the GlobalSettings.xml file in its existing location.
If you now open the FFS GUI, everything should work as before, with your sync configs in their new location.

^^^ Looks way too complicated
Simply move the icons/configuration files to a new location that works for you, then open FFS (the configuration list will probably be empty now), then File->Open and select your configurations

@xCSxXenon
Moving the icons/configuration files to a new location does not modify FFS's GlobalSetings.xml file.
That file contains the list of previously run sync configurations, as shown in the FFS GUI.
I don't know (but don't expect) that FFS checks the existence of stored previously run syncs when opening the FFS GUI. If it does, the list of sync configurations might be blank, which is not what the topic starter wants. If it does not, the FFS GUI will show the "old" list sync configurations and will fail to open such configuration when selecting one, which is also not what topic starter wants.
Hence my description of a way to achieve what topic starter does (seem to) want.

My solution achieves the same. Do you read the entire post before responding, or just the first few words?
