'MacOS how to hide the folders and files located on the desktop
I have folders and files on the desktop, I would like to make sure that when I take a screenshot or video recording of a program, the folders and files I have on the desktop are not seen.
Is there any command on the terminal that allows me to do this?
I need to hide everything only when I do the screen or the recording, and then return everything as before.
How can I do?
Solution 1:[1]
defaults write com.apple.finder CreateDesktop false && killall Finder
will hide all Files and Mounts, with
defaults write com.apple.finder CreateDesktop true && killall Finder
you can display them.
You have to invoke the commands from terminal Tested wit Monterey 12.3
