    Shortcuts


    I recently upgraded my laptop to windows 10 and had a shortcut on my laptop for an app I used about 3-4 years ago in windows 8. My laptop filled with some old files so a started to delete some files. I deleted the file of the accounted app: after deleting the file, I looked to see my home page and it was still there. It wouldn't go into the trash and wouldn't delete.

    Please can you guys help me with a solution.



    Kind regards,


    Abbas Yusuf

    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.Shortcuts :)
