    don’t want to put my desk top full of icons

    You can right-click and delete each of the few existing icons.
    Also, you can DesktopMenu}Logout and, on the “login” screen, press F1 repeatedly…
    choose “icewm” or “min-icewm” as the session type before you login
    (or explore the other choices, any without “space-” or “rox-” in the name will provide an icon-free desktop)

    Only thing I have: It looks very much like Windowns as I remember from years ago.

    How much can you change that?

    You can choose from among many (many!) installable components.
    Maybe skim the screenshots shown here —-v

    and for whichever screenshots show a “look” that appeals to you, read to find out “to achieve THAT look, what program or component do I need?”

    I really don’t like that column-popup-menu thing to find all your programs and stuff.

    Various installable “runner” aka “finder” programs are available.
    For starters, search this forum for topics discussing the “rofi” program…
