Thousands of screenshots, a downloads folder you are afraid of, bookmarks you will never revisit. Two days of focused tidying, plus one small habit, is enough to reset all of it.
Start with the screenshots
Your camera roll is probably half screenshots — receipts, memes, maps, things you meant to act on. Go through them once. Anything you actually need, save into a proper folder (receipts, ideas, travel). Everything else, delete. You will clear hundreds in twenty minutes.
Tame the downloads folder
Downloads is where files go to be forgotten. Sort the keepers into folders — documents, reference, projects — and bin the rest. If a file matters, it deserves a home; if it does not, it deserves the trash.
Fix bookmarks and tabs
Bookmarks and open tabs are just links you have not organised. Move the ones worth keeping into a real library sorted by topic, and close the rest. Our guide on saving links in one place has a system that sticks.
Give everything you save one home
EZ Save is a single, private library for links, photos, videos and documents, sorted into folders you will actually use.

Clutter comes back when there is nowhere obvious for things to go, so they get dropped wherever. The fix is a single, trusted place for the things you save — links, photos, documents — divided into folders you will actually use. One home, not ten.
The two-minute save habit
Maintenance is one rule: save it properly the moment it arrives, or do not save it at all. Two seconds to file a thing beats twenty minutes hunting for it later. Do that, and the weekend reset becomes a once-a-year tidy instead of a monthly rescue.
