In this Directory: C:\Users\Public\Desktop
I noticed some programs are listed there, why are they public and not private?
What does public mean specifically?
If i visit a website and in order to use the website i have to accept cookies, can this website access my public desktop and know which programs are installed there, in the worst case sell this information?
Can programs that i have installed access my public desktop and find out what other programs are linked there?
When i delete the link / shortcut in windows explorer from the public desktop, the icon also dissapears from my desktop.
Can i delete they public desktop entry somehow without deleting it from my desktop?
In the first place, why is it even public?
And who [which program website or company] can access this public desktop informations?
