    simple just restore thumbnail cache in win7

    just follow this

    start> type cmd, press enter and then copy this lines followed by ENTER

    taskkill /IM explorer.exe /F

    CD /d %userprofile%\AppData\Local

    DEL IconCache.db /a

    shutdown /r
    Nope that didn't work. Icons on desktop after reboot. Have to rt click deskto/view/click show desktop icons; go through it all again and de select show desktop icons. Show desktop icons is not selected, but to get rid of the icons I have to select it and then de select it; weird huh?

    It isn't a fix, but a workaround. Try Iconoid, it hides the icons and shows them for a selected amount of time when you click the desktop. A Guy
