The problem I am having is with my desktop items. Just to confirm, I have already:
Right clicked and selected "View" :- The box is checked.
I have tried showing hidden and system files, - no joy. Although I do have two .txt files called "desktop", if that helps at all.
I have checked in
C:\Users\AccountName\Desktop
: This folder is empty - However if I place an icon in there then it does show up on the desktop.I have gone to My Computer and clicked the Desktop tab on the left hand side, the standard icons (Recycle Bin etc..) are displayed here (minus a few non standard ones of my own).
So my question is:
Why can I not see these icons when the computer clearly knows they are there? Furthermore, if I drag and drop them over to the C\Users\...\Desktop
folder they all appear as shortcuts. I know this might sound OK, but I want to know why it wont work properly (and how to make it behave).
