The desktop is the main screen area that you see after you turn on your computer and log on to Windows. Right-click an empty spot on your desktop, select Personalize. In the Personalization window, in the top left-hand corner, click on "Change desktop icons". Note, you can also get to this window directly from the Control Panel. In the Desktop Icon Settings window, click to select all the empty checkboxes for the desktop icons. Click Ok. That's it and your job is done.

Icons are small pictures that represent files, folders, programs, and other items. Your computer manufacturer might have added other icons to the desktop. First, you can right-click and get directly to the Internet Options panel, and secondly it doesn’t have the shortcut icon arrow. Open up regedit.exe through the start menu search or run box, and then browse down to the following key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel
