How to convert the desktop icons and the start menu from right to left after changing the language from English to Arabic without changing the language



:)

 

Left click start menu makes desktop icon disappear.


A customer brought me a machine with an issue I have never seen before. All desktop icons were gone and the only thing on the desktop is 3 lines in the upper left (opens an empty start menu), 3 lines in the lower left (opens all programs list) and the power button above that. I have managed to bring the desktop icons back but when I click the start menu it switches from the desktop with icons to the above mentioned screen with no icons. When it is on this new screen you can't right click on anything. A new user works as it should. The customer has no idea what they clicked on. Is there someway to rest any customization's they have done?

 

Can't Place Rcycle Icon on right Start Menu in Windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

I regret the inconvenience caused to you. Let me help you.

Please share the details.

1. Have you made any changes to the computer prior to this issue?

2. Are you facing this issue in Local account or Microsoft account?

I would suggest you to follow the steps.

• It sounds like you are right clicking on the Start Screen, not the Desktop.
• On the Start Screen, there is a Tile named Desktop. Left click that Tile and this will take you to the Desktop.
• Right click an empty spot on the Desktop and select Personalize in the menu.
• On the left side of the Personalize box, click Change Desktop Icons.
• Place a check mark in the Recycle Bin and click Apply/OK.
• This will place the Recycle Bin icon on your Desktop. Click that icon to open the Recycle Bin.

Start menu default internet acces icon screwed?

You generally set that via the Start Menu settings (right-click start menu -> properties).

I had that issues a while ago, and it meant removing it from the Start Menu, and reinstalling my browser to get the icon back, it was very odd.
