• Desktop icons disappear

  Having just downloaded the latest Firefox update (I'm on the beta channel), as soon as it restarts, five of my desktop icons disappeared. I have more than 60 icons on my desktop and I don't remember what they are. Is it possible to know what icons have disappeared and the recovery please?

  Hi markyb208,

  I'm not sure what you have a problem with Firefox.

  Are you talking about icons on your Windows 7 desktop. In a standard installation, Firefox will try to add an icon on the desktop, but it shouldn't do something to remove the icons.

• Pavilion p7: the desktop icons disappeared

  When I started my pc this morning I founf that all my desktop icons disappeared

  Hmm, that's strange. I wonder if you might have accidentally switched to Tablet mode, where the desktop icons would not display. See switch between Mode desktop and Tablet (Windows 10).

  If this does not work, try to install the Windows updates and reboot your computer. I would also like to run a virus scan. Good luck!

• All my desktop icons disappeared from my Windows 7 Desktop

  I created several icons on Desktop 4 computers after installing clean computers with Windows 7 Profession (whether with the 32-bit or 64-bit). After a few days, some of the desktop icons disappear. However, when I click on the toolbar of office at the bottom of the Windows desktop, icons that disappeared from the Office were always present and available in the list of desktop toolbar. I've seen many users have the same problem on the Internet but no solution to the problem. Any suggestion for the fix.

  Hi guys,.

  I found the cause of her mysteriously disappear from the Windows 7 desktop icons and the reason why the Show Desktop icons now and then get UN-ticked.

  INFRARECORDER is! Try for yourself, when you start Infrarecorder and close the bottle, go take a look at 'See the desktop icons', it is not checked (but the icons are still there). Check it on again and start Infrarecorder... He is not checked again.

  This Windows 7 "bug" is irritating for me since the beginning and now I found the cause: it is Infrarecorder that causes this problem.

  Test it and please let me know and spread the word :-)

  Oh! If you think it's a Virus/Malware then take your HARD drive internal to another machine and have it is scanned with a good Antivirus updated. If nothing else works the hard way is to format your machine.

  Hi reda

  Thank you for taking the time to help me with my problem.

  I tried method 1 and it did not help, I tried method 2 and I received an error message indicating that the sfc scan has failed and method 3, returned a negative virus detection.

  Out of pure frustration, I pulled the cables at the back of the computer and left the cable VGA/SVGA male PC to another port on the computer (at the bottom of the computer toward the upper left side), and it seems to have done the trick - why I do not know?

  Since the cable, the computer has been running at 100%, and the problem seems to have corrected itself.

  Thanks a lot again for your answer.

  Kind regards

• Almost all my desktop icons disappeared, as well as their relevant applications. I was no longer in Classic view.

  I use Windows 7 Pro x 64.  Last night I ran the latest offerings from update, which has been a long process involving several dozen Articles.  When I turned on the computer this morning, almost all of my desktop icons disappeared, as well as their relevant applications.  I was no longer in the classical view; resembled a view of windows 8.  I tried the system restore, that wouldn't work and returned with an error message saying that HS has not been installed on the machine.  Cannot start in safe mode.  Do I have any options?  I have to re - install the OS?  Linux would prevent this kind of problem?  Thank you for your cooperation and assistance.  * E-mail address is removed from the privacy *

• Desktop icons disappear over and over again

  Whenever I turn on my laptop (I have Vista 64) my desktop icons are invisible. I have to right-click, select this option to make the invisible icons (even if they are already), and then repeat the process to choose to make visible again. After that, they reappear and are normal, but sometimes they disappear periodically while the laptop is as well. How can I fix it?

  Was there a time when you did NOT have this problem?
  If Yes, how long?
  If it was not more than 10-15 days ago, you can do a system restore. Choose a date where you did not have this problem as you restore point. Here is the tutorial, where you need:
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/76905-System-Restore-how.html

  If it is not possible to restore the system, please do a check of the file system:
  Here are the step by step to do the checking of the filesystem, sfc/scannow:

  Start button > Search box type cmd > look up, do a RIGHT click on cmd.exe > click on Run As Administrator > in this black and white cmd window, tap the flashing pormpt sfc/scannow > press the ENTER key.
  Note: there is a space between 'sfc' and ' / '.
  To sit and wait. It will take time.
  When finished, exit the cmd window.
  Reboot (restart your computer)

  See if your desktop icons are now include.

• the desktop icons disappear when I connect through a VPN

  On my Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, SP1 system, automatic reorganization and snap to grid are unchecked.  And I don't have problems with icons on a restart.  I have problems when I access my system in my home using a VPN and the DRC.

  Sometimes when I connect, I find that most of my desktop shortcut icons have disappeared and the few remaining ones are reorganized.  It happens every time and I did not understand a common denominator as to when it occurs.

  I copied all my desktop shortcuts to a folder on a different drive if I can put them all after they disappear, but when I copy and paste them on the desktop, they do not return to the same places they were in front.  Instead, they are lined up on the grid starting at the top left and go down and creating more columns until all the icons were pasted.

  So, I have to manually, drag and drop them where I want them to be.

  Like others who interrogated him about the desktop icons, when I right click on the desktop I do not receive a "Properties" link as shown.  I'm getting , sort by view, refresh, paste & paste the shortcut, cancel deletion, New, screen resolution, Gadgets and Personalize.

  I also tried another solution that said"right-click an empty space on your desktop and Select the desktop icons.  When I right click, I get the menu described in the previous paragraph.  Then when I start to clicking on icons to highlight, the menu disappears.  If I pointed out all the icons first and then with the right button on the desktop, the menu and the highlighting disappears.

  How can lock the desktop icons?  I agree with the donor who asked a parameter for "don't mess with my desktop computer EVER.

  Hi Jane,

  Given that the problem seems to occur when you access your system from home using a VPN (Virtual Private Network) and RDC (Remote Desktop connection). I would like you to post your question in the TechNet forums for help.
