Not free (or 'free') but there is a commercial app that does this very well indeed - Stardock Groupy. It was bundled in with something else I bought years ago and I just leave it running as it's quite handy.

You beat me to it. They’ve got a bunch of cool utilities. In the windows 7 days I was a huge fan of logon studio.

Microsoft could learn a lot from what they’re doing, as for the most part I still prefer not using 3rd-party utilities to mess with things.

Their 'Fences' app is excellent (which was the app I bought the bundle for).

In particular, the ability to create a view on the desktop onto another folder. This lets me split my desktop into 'local' and 'cloud' areas by having a fence containing a view onto a Google Drive-hosted folder.
