Sep 6, 2012

The issue I need assistance with is that my desktop icons (graphics only) have dissapeared. The text remains and if I click on the text I am directed to the programme. I have checked the location of the graphics on the system and they are still there.During this time I have also had intermittent error messages which appear for seconds "Windows Explorer is not working" and then it reloads and I can continue. but still no icons.

Some Desktop Icons Disappeared?

Nov 17, 2011

This morning I decided to create a new user account. There was only 1 account on the machine, with administrative priveledges. I created a 2nd account and also made it an administrator account. I then logged off the 1st account and into the new account, made a few simple changes to Internet Explorer (Toolbar and Explorer bar options), then logged back into the 1st account. When I did, I noticed half of the icons that were on the desktop were gone. There are spaces now between the ones that are still there (previously had about 30 of them on the desktop all arranged to the left, aligned to grid; now there are about 17 missing). I am using Windows Home 7 Premium, service pack 1.

Icons On Desktop Hidden / Disappeared?

Jan 13, 2009

At some point yesterday all my icons where invisible when looking at the desktop. But when browsing trough it with explorer I can find back to them, or show all stuff at my desktop. But not without doing it trough explorer.The right-click menu still works, and I can change desktop-wall and stuff. Also tried changing back to default theme, and removing My Computer and taking it back. But nothing seems to fix it :S Also tried several reboots, but still no icons show.Tried adding another user, and guess what, he got desktop icons! So there need to be something I have turned off etc.

Half Of Desktop Icons Disappeared?

Feb 3, 2012

So I just upgraded my home-made vista home premium machine to windows 7 home premium. When I got into windows 7 for the first time, everything was as expected (only a couple of incompatible programs but nbd). My desktops icons were all still there and like I mentioned most of my programs were still running just fine. Then, late at night when I was fooling around with some files (either deleting stuff or trying to update drivers or something) I noticed my desktop refreshed and came back with nearly half the icons it had before. When I searched for those programs that the deleted icons executed, they were still in my computer but some of there icons had been changed to the windows default one, which sorta looks like a page with the top right corner bent in and a little M$ Window opened.

Deleted Duplicated Icons - All Files And Folders Disappeared From Desktop

Jul 9, 2012

This morning I was arranging my desktop files and folders. As I clicked the command to sort by item type, suddenly I had duplicates of every file and folder as listed on my desktop. I even had two icons for the recycle bin! I started moving one of each of the duplicated files and folders into one of the duplicated recycle bins.

I rearranged the files and folders. I then emptied one of the recycle bins. I then clicked on the desktop to rearrange the files and folders. Suddenly almost everything else on my desktop disappeared! There were many files and folder on the desktop that are now gone, there are only 7 files and folders left. Is there any way I can recover these missing files and folders.

Force Closed Firefox - Desktop Icons And Entire Taskbar Disappeared

Sep 17, 2010

Basically, all of the icons on my desktop, as well as my entire taskbar, including the windows icon, have disappeared. It happened about 20 minutes ago, when I forced firefox to close via task manager. After I hit End Process, the icons and my taskbar disappeared. I can't right-click my desktop either. However, my desktop background, as well as the toolbar on the top is still there, and all of my programs as well as explorer are accessible. I've done one cold restart, and nothing changed. I've gone into the control panel, but I couldn't access anything associated to the task bar, and my windows key does not work as well.

Apr 25, 2011

i've been on 7-64 now for some 3 months. i used to see "documents and settings" -folder, including "all users" on my explorer tree.from what i understand, this was a junction/shortcut to c:users , however, the whole documents and settings folder is no longer appearing, and with it a bunch of shortcuts that were in the start menu of all users are missing.this leaves me with a creepy feeling that a lot of other program settings could be now gone.how to restore the junction? - i assume that many legacy programs will not work correctly without documents and settings on the system.

Something happened. Many of my icons do not work any more. I thing I have tracked it down to XPS Viewer. I get the following message:

"Windows Photo Viewer can't open this picture because either this photo viewer doesn't support this file format or you don't have the latest update to Photo Viewer."

The problem came out of nowhere but.. I was working with pictures and might have deleted something on the lower task bar. Adobe has disappeared too. Was going to try to update it but it is no longer on my desktop????
