Re: lost all desktop icons
Heh. So System Restore restores user files does it? From your own link:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What files are changed during a system restore?
System Restore affects Windows system files, programs, and registry
settings. It can also make changes to scripts, batch files, and other types
of executable files on your computer.
NoteSystem Restore does not affect personal files, such as e-mail,
documents, or photos, so it cannot help you restore a deleted file. If you
have backups of your files, you can restore the files from a backup
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In any case, it's irrelevant, as the OP just needs to right click the
Desktop and Show Desktop Icons.

Just right click the Desktop and select Show Desktop Icons (or similar).

MVPs are not that bright...In fact most of them are stupid. This is a very
good example of mistakes that
not even a novice would make. Using system restore to show icons on a
desktop.. lol
Whats next, using a thermonuclear device to crack an egg open?
Feeding him his own post (that he blindly copy pasted from the MS site) was
a nice touch...

Has been the solution since Windows ME.

I wouldn't say that really. There are MVPs that know an awful lot, for
somebody that has the time to bother posting on usenet.

Re: lost all desktop icons
Hey thanks for the info. right after I posted my problem I took sometime and
within a few minutes figured it out myself. I guess I should have done that
first before posting. And yes, I know that system restore would have been too
drastic....give me a break :)
Thanks again
