You can add icons to your desktop in Windows 10 and more easily access the system apps or folders you regularly use. Here's how to do it.

After you install the Google Drive desktop app, it adds a Google Drive icon to your system tray. This icon comes in handy because you can click it to open the Google Drive folder quickly.

However, Google has good reason to include the element in Chrome’s 2023 refresh, considering rival desktop browsers like Microsoft Edge already use icons to help the UX.
