• the desktop icons will reappear after reboot

  I have Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit on Asus g60 laptop that I just bought.  I always hide my icons the desktop, but for some reason some they keep reappearing after I restart.  I do not think that this happens every time, but it happens at least at every restart of the 3rd.  It gets really annoying.  Even the "Show desktop icons" box is checked.  Help, please!

  Well, I tried what l1willia said, but it does not solve the problem.  I ended up uninstalling Power4Gear Hybrid and it seems to have solved the problem.  What piece of garbage that the software was lol

  Thanks for the comments and if it does not solve the problem permanently, I will reply to this message.

  my icons have a blue background, how can I remove this blue highlight

  I did the two steps and always with shadows. This Monday last after a Windows Update.
  Before updating my theme Windows was classic. After restarting of theme look to XP with the shadows :( Anything else I can do?

  Thanks in advance.

  This border on the desktop icons can be created when the elements of the Office was locked, to unlock the desktop items web right click on an empty area of your desktop. Now, select arrange icons by and uncheck "Web Lock Desktop items" if she has a little check mark next to it. If you did not have a tick here and then right click on your my computer icon and view its properties, now click on the Advanced tab click the button settings running. Now on the Visual Effects tab scroll effects to 'use the shadows of the desktop icon labels' and put a tick in the box next to it, and then click ok. This should remove the border from the shadow of your desktop icons.

  Just like that.
