    Losing icons on laptop


    I connected my laptop to my sound system at church. It has been working fine. Laptop was 1 and monitors were 2. Two weeks ago when I connect the HDMI cable to the laptop, all the icons showed only on the monitors and the laptop showed only the background.
    Before this, I installed( short time) a program for our digital sign just until we purchase a laptop to use with the digital sign. Since this has happen, I have uninstalled the program, but the icons are still on the monitors and nothing is on the laptop screen.
    can you help

    :)

    Change Folder Icon in Windows 10


    I just acquired a new laptop running Windows 10 and am trying to change the icons of the folders in the StartUp "Program" folder so that they would stand out a little better. I used my admin account and followed all the steps listed above, but when I clicked on "Apply", nothing happened. The same basic windows folder icon remained attached to the folder. I also tried to go into Properties and capitalize some of the folder names, but that didn't work either. Looks like something is protecting them, but I cannot figure out what it is much less how to get around this blockage, Any suggestions?
