    Why is microsoft putting out bad updates that effect so many people? Do they not try them out befor inflicting us with these updates? After my computor restarted this morning, most of my desktop icons for various folders, games, pdfs and links are gone. Not all but over half of them. I tried your various methods recommended to restore them but to no avail. Again, stop fixing things that are not broken.

    :)

  2. 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 Won't Stay Put

    Hi Laurie,

    As per the issue description I understand that you are facing issues with desktop icons.

    I suggest you try the following step in order to arrange the icons.

    • Right click on the desktop.
    • Click on view
    • Check the option auto arrange icons.
    Let us know if this helps.

    Thanks.
