  2. Remove Linux Desktop Icons

    I am not sure whether this will work (Ubuntu does not have icons like that on the desktop by default), but I suggest opening the trash bin and sweeping the icons into the window showing the trash bin.

  3. Mysterious blue earth icon appearing and disappearing ?

    Hi,

    Thank you for being a part of Windows 10.

    I appreciate you for providing details about the issue and your effort towards resolving it.

    I would suggest you to hover the mouse on that blue earth icon to know the name of the application.

    If you are able to identify that application name then, I suggest you to check if that application is present in the
    Programs and Features. Follow the below steps:

    • Right click on the Start button and select Control Panel from the list.
    • Click on Programs and Features.
    • Check if that application is present.
    Also, check if that application is present in the Apps & features from the following steps:

    • Press Windows + I keys from the Keyboard to open the
      Settings.
    • Click on System and click on Apps & features from the left pane.
    • Check if that application is present.
    Kindly let us know if you need any further assistance with Windows. We are happy to assist you.

    Thank you.

    all icon open the same application

    Applications not opening at same location and in same size after reopening

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    I understand how frustrating it could be when the computer doesn’t work properly. However, we will need some information from you:

    • Are you facing this issue with all the applications or with specific application?

    You can change the size for opening of the program as Normal Window, Maximized or Minimized. Please follow the steps mentioned below to change the settings:

    • Right click on the icon of the application and click on Properties.
    • Under Run select the size of the window from the drop-down list.
    • Now, click on Apply and OK.

    Ideally, the applications are opened on the same position on the screen as they were closed last time. This issue may be due to a profile corruption. Hence, in order to eliminate possibilities, I would suggest you to create a new user account, and
    check if the issue persists. Follow the steps from the article
    Create a local user or administrator account in Windows 10 to create
    a new user account.

    Hope it helps.

    Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.
