    Just curious about what settings causes this. Just started in January.


    Running 1909, patches/updates up-to-date. Most, but not all, icons have this.

    Laptop runs fine, no hitches or issues, just wondering what this is about.


    Regards,

    Why doesn't my Windows Icon in the Lower Left Corner of my Desktop Screen work anymore?

    * Original Title: The Windows Icon on the Lower Left Corner of the Desktop Screen

    Why doesn't my Windows Icon in the Lower Left Corner of my Desktop Screen work anymore? When I click on the "four squares" emblem, it doesn't bring up all the apps like it use to.

    Sharing Icon appears on Desktop Icons in lower left corner, Windows 10???

    Sometime after update KB3213986 on Jan 11, a small "sharing" icon appeared in the lower left corner of my desktop folder and file icons, but not on my shortcut icons.

    I am suppose to have my Carbonite backup icons there, but they say this sharing icon will not allow their icon to appear.

    Microsoft has tried three times without a resolve.

    Anyone have the issue with successful resolve?
