    Desktop mode to tablet mode

    When I enter desktop mode from tablet mode I can't switch back to tablet mode without going into settings. When I click the Windows Icon or button it shows the tablet mode display but returns into desktop when I click using the touchpad,

    Remove Linux Desktop Icons

    I am not sure whether this will work (Ubuntu does not have icons like that on the desktop by default), but I suggest opening the trash bin and sweeping the icons into the window showing the trash bin.

    Desktop Icons vanished


    To : DrAS,

    Just to elaborate what Berton has told you..........that you are on Tablet Mode.
    If it is what Berton has suggested, you can have your desktop back. Follow steps below................
    Bottom right next to Time, there is a notification icon > click it > click Tablet mode.
    You should have your desktop back.
