The Desktop Folder is a regular folder with the interesting special feature that files and folders inside it are also display over your Desktop. The files you see on your Desktop are the same files you can view in a Finder window when looking at the Desktop Folder.

Another great video. I learned a lot!
I have a Numbers document that I collaborate with my wife. Can she "put" the document in the Desktop so she can easily find it each month when she needs to update it? Or is there something special about "collaborated" documents?

Gene; She should be able to put it anywhere as long as it is inside iCloud Drive. So if her Desktop folder is iCloud Drive, then that's fine.
