Game Icon's Vanishing Act
There has been a couple of times that I found that renaming the desktop icons for some programs (all that I remember were games), that the icons would disappear, and I had to send new ones from the program's folder to desktop for them to stay.
However this last time with F.E.A.R. after rebooting, the original icons reappeared, which was a little eerie with all of those eyes on the desktop. The reason that I had to reinstall the game, was that the NoCD exe that I had been using for more than a year, had disappeared from the program's folder. Even more strange was the fact that when I moved the NoCD exe into the new install, it disappeared within a couple of seconds, and since I moved it there, instead of copy/pasting it, I no longer have the patch available, since I could not find it any longer on the internet.
However, my question is not about finding the patch, but to find a reason for the disapearances in the first place...any ideas?
