I lost all my icons on my desktop including start menu, etc. How can I restore all them to the desktop? I have Windows XP.
Hi Patrica
What led up to this event? Did you just boot up and they were gone, or had you been customising things?
Have you had other problems such as virus/malware issues?
Does this do anything
Right click on the desktop -> Arrange icons -> Show icons on desktop
Can you see your taskbar?
Reboot the computer. If your icons and start menu still dont show then try the below:
On your keyboard press ctrl+alt+del.
Click File>new task. In the box type explorer.exe.
Your start menu should load, if not then something is corrupt or possibly a virus.
