Desktop Media Automatically Adds Shortcuts to USB Drives, DVDs on the Desktop

Desktop Media is small application for Windows that automatically adds shortcut icons to USB drives, CD/DVD disks and other media when you connect these devices to your computer, and then automatically remove the shortcuts when unplug the device. Additionally, Desktop Media can display shortcuts to fixed hard drive partitions on the desktop for easy access.

Desktop Media is similar to the program Desk Drive which was reviewed in the past. In fact, Desktop Media was inspired by Desk Drive but has a smaller memory footprint and more features.
