Updates have messed with my desktop icons

I ran into the last updated last night.  This morning, they set up.

Now, on my desktop icons are tiny and when I went wide and to customize the size of the icons, they are still small and the text gets bigger.  I tried all the settings, but none give me the icons according to their original format.

This is a problem because I use the image and not the text to locate the icon that I want to use.

Having large amounts of text and tiny icons is not at all helpful.

Anyone know what is happening?

I tried. I just found a solution. It turns out that the zoom has changed. I don't know how or why.

    No application of cc, no clouds. It's the simple truth here. Programs cannot operate without him, since he controls the installation and licensing. the rest, we do not know, since you have not provided any useful technical information. Start by reading this (yet?):

  • Since the so-called S.M.A.R.T.got in my computer didn't have any of my desktop icons. I'm unable to access my documents. I can only use IE 9 and the control panel.

    A company called S.M.A.R.T. somehow entered into my computer and continually scanned my hard drive.  I was able to get rid of that after many emails for them.  After that they took out of my computer, I had my office.  There were once beautiful images in the background with all my many icons showing.  Now all I have is a blank screen with only a few icons that I was able to resurrect.  They are: Recycle Bin, Panel Sontrol and new Document Microsoft Word Document template.  I am more able to access one of my documents.  There are documents that I need to work on but cannot do it at all.  Is there a solution to this problem?  I'm desperate!  Thank you.

    Your computer is infected with the rogue malware. Rogue malware is software that installs on your computer. He tries to scare you into buying the product informing you of the wrong issues with your hard drive.

    First thing NOT to do is to remove all temporary files. This rogue often hides your files. It is a program that can view your files, but you must first get rid of the malware.

    Restart your computer in safe mode with network. Click HERE, download, install, update and perform a full scan with Malwarebytes.

    Once the scan is complete, please let me know what has been detected. If you have trouble running Malwarebytes click HERE, download Rkill and run. Rkill is NOT a malware removal tool. Simply, it detects the malicious processes that are running on your computer and it kills to run malwarebytes and scan your computer.

  • Your updates have messed up my Web pages and how they work. I am not happy! I can't restore what I had before, that worked for me. Firefox 4 crashes my Mac. And my web pages refresh more correctly. Please stop breaking things.

    Yesterday, I upgraded to firefox 4 because I had problems with noscript and my version previous freeze my mac book. I don't remember what the previous version was, unfortunately, because I would like to return.

    In the previous version, the links on web pages would open a new tab at the end of the tab chain. It worked very well for me because it allowed me to have a list of things I wanted to read after the tabs that I keep it open all the time.

    Firefox 4 and, it seems, all Firefoxes after only 3.6 open new tab next to the page you. This messes up my organization of the tabs. Sometimes, I find an article I want to read, but can't read it just right then. I want the end of all the tabs not in the middle of the tabs I keep open to the pages, I have followed all the time.

    Is it possible that I can have the open tab as the last tab on the channel rather than next to the tab I'm.

    Other problems, but I don't know if it's a firefox thing or a thing of the Web page.

  • The desktop icons have overlapping window?

    Right now, the problem I have right now, has to do with my desktop icons.  Not too long ago, I used a remover to office arrow and it messed with my registry.  I don't know why, but it ended anyway does not.  Now, instead of the arrow, I have a WEIRD window looking icon overlapping my icons. Its like a box with an x in the upper right corner and three icons above the other three icons in the window itself.  It is smaller than a large icon and bigger than a small icon. Which means that when I chose little, he rides my ACTUAL together icon with this junk. It's pretty boring.  I'll see if I can't get an accurate picture. Thank you guys

  • Action of the desktop icon

    I keep having problems with my desktop icons.  The icons on my desktop are normally appear when the system is booted initially every morning.  I click an icon to open a software package, and it will open the corrent package.  I will, when I'm thru using this package, close this window through the X.  Here's where abnormal things happen... the icons to load quickly one at a time, often from a screen of a generic icon.  Immediately after that the generic icons are loaded, the non-generic icons will load above the generic icons.  The total duration of the loading icon and redo is just a matter of seconds.

    The likely problem is associated with the IconCash.db file?  (I don't know about this file by reading articles on the web.  What I have read it makes me think that this IconCash.db file is possibly corrupted.)

    I find an IconCache.db file on my system - C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data.  The size of this file is 3 111 Ko with an update on 04/05/2009, 19:30.  Y at - he a clue here that this file is obsolete... swollen... or just the one that should be remade?  If so, how can I make this happen?  I hope that this action will you not get involved with registry... a place where I have rarely, if ever get.  Please bring any help and/or instructions enough for a beginner to follow clearly maintenance.

  • the desktop icons no longer appear when I turn on the computer.

    Hello, I recently upgraded to an office update prompted and now the desktop icons no longer appear when I restart the computer.

    You check office. There the icons? If so, reboot, still exist the icons?

    If the foregoing does nopt working, do a system restore.

  • 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.
