Very interesting: I've seen more than a few of these but I've never seen a profiles view. I do wish you could hide/show icons with this.

@Midas
I think the latest version of ReIcon is 1.6, not 1.16.

I wonder what happens when desktop files/shortcuts are missing and the user loads a previously saved layout. I'd expect it would ignore the missing files and match the remaining.
