Things like File Explorer opened to This PC (so you just see the drives, no files), a browser opened to your company's home page, a blank MS Word document, etc. Then your desktop wallpaper will never be seen. (If you normally use icons on your desktop to open things, familiarize yourself with using the Start Menu and Taskbar to open them instead.) | |

| Jun 25, 2016 at 20:51 | comment | added | Masked Man | Can you tell if I am an anime fan? Yes, you probably can with absolute certainty if you look at my SE profile. Do you know who I am in real life? Likely not (although my identity is not exactly a secret). What is the point I am making here? You cannot be "absolutely certain" what interests other people have in their private life. Don't base your decisions on that assumption, it will create problems. :) | |

I can guarantee with absolute certainty that the other members won't recognize the characters or even anime in general. -- Probably not a safe assumption to make unless you have complete control over these peoples' lives.
