All of a sudden my desktop icons take forever (90seconds) to load. That is what it is?

My desktop icons would charge almost as soon as the page Office appeared.  Something to happen, and now it takes approximately 90seconds. I ran Norton, Microsoft Essentials, reg more clear and reg fix and updated the icon cache, but nothing has changed.  Does anyone have a suggestion?

Hi PreachermanRT,

Now, you will need to know which service is causing the issue of icons on the desktop on the computer.

See the Microsoft article below and try the steps mentioned in the title of system services.

Perform a clean boot to determine if background programs interfere with your game or program

  • Why, suddenly, my desktop icons are difficult to align because they can be moved very small distances?

    For years, my desktop icons have acted as if they have so many 'slots' to enter in on the office. But this has never been a problem. They were easier to align because they were right next to each other, or a 'slot' above/below/apart.

    Now, for some reason, I can travel distances of small icons on the desktop, as if they were scalar elements which can be minimally pushed open. Suddenly there are not more "slots", and sort of paradoxically icons are more difficult to assemble and align because I have to keep their repositioning so that they are straight. Before, they were either straight, or a whole notch offline.

    It is NOT correct. Right-click and select Show , and then turn on Align

  • Why, after using Firefox for years, all of a sudden I can't videos on many print articles that have them, whereas if I go on Internet Explorer, I can?

    On many web pages, videos that are included in an article, are just big white spaces with nothing (no video click on whatever it is) in them. If I open a browser IE and go to the same article, it displays and plays the video perfectly. I know many people who knows this.

    Hello

    Try clear your recent history:

    This happens in Mode safe:

    Also check if your anti-virus is blocking the video. Could you put the link to the article? This happens with a single article or any web site?

  • Impossible to use twitter all of a sudden using Firefox 17

    Normally, I use twitter without problem with Firefox. But now all of a sudden he log and takes me to the pages, but does not allow me to post tweets, respond to others, or retweet or close the session or send direct messages. So basically I can't do anything unless I use internet explore, where it seems to work. I don't want to use IE or I wouldn't get Firefox! It is not my twitter account, because the same thing happens on other accounts connected on this computer. I tried to download a new version of firefox, delete all cookies from twitter and everything else. My account and firefox work on 'Tweetdeck' site but not the actual twitter site. Can I do because you can't email twitter (well, I don't have an e-mail address that works for them!)

    Thank you. It seems to add it on which is causing MY problem is the AVG search bar. Then I disabled who. AVG always seems to be a problem for me!

  • font size change the desktop icons

    Suddenly, my desktop icons have the image or the text on them reduced to be very small. The background is always the same size, but the stuff on the icon are almost invisible

    Right-click on the icon START, and then select Properties. Click the Customize button. Scroll down to almost the bottom. Put a check mark in the use of large icons.
