    help! lost all desktop icons


    i have Windows 7x64 Pro. The system is less than a year old and sparsely populated and clean.

    This morning when I booted up, Windows opened and none of my desktop icons were present.

    The Start Menu works and I can get to my programs but how do I restore my desktop?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Nevermind! Sorry for the inconvenience. Somehow "show desktop icons" got turned off. Doh! (I'm not the only one using this computer.)
