  1. My Computer Icon


    When I click on the my computer icon it sits there and says "working on it"

    After a reboot it brings up the icons for around ten minutes then it stops working

    I have tried all the registry tweaks that I can find nothing works.

    Short of reformatting my computer which I do not want to do any ideas?

    I reinstalled windows numerous times and it still persists.

    Help please. This also happen when I click the file explorer in the task bar. The drives are visible in the view pane but no icons.

    I have also reinstalled the my computer icon numerous times.

    :)

    Hi Richard,

    To help you better provide us with the information below.

    • Which build is currently running on your computer?
    • Did you make any recent software changes on your computer?

    As an initial step I would suggest you Right click on Desktop Window> View > Check Shows desktop icons, check if the desktop icons are back on desktop.

    Check if the Icons or files are available in the My Documents>Desktop folder, check if icons are visible in the folder.

    Get back to us with the updated status of the issue for further assistance.
