    Dear Microsoft team,


    Could you help me figure out how to fix the system links as below image?

    I don't know how to describe it clearly and when it occurred due to system crashed or 3rd software parties.

    Search Results

    I would suggest you to try the following steps and check if that helps.

    • Go to the folder C:\Windows\System32 and sort by file type.
    • Look for the screensaver file type (.scr).
    • Find the file scrnsave.scr(you can choose any of the screensavers).
    • Right click and select send to>desktop (create shortcut). The shortcut on my attachment, but when i click on it my screen goes off and on and nothing else.Lost all system shortcut links :)

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    I understand that the files and shortcuts that you have pinned to the desktop is missing. We will assist you to resolve the issue.
    It must be difficult when things do not work as expected.

    To assist you better, I would like to know what type of files are missing from the desktop.

    I suggest you to check for the files that are missing just by typing on the search bar and File explorer and check if you are able to access it.
