Desktop Problem

Try this, hold the CTRL key down and pull the mouse wheel toward you. this will reduce the size of the desktop icons. (Have the desktop active.)
Right click an empty spot and click Refresh and see if that helps.
What size monitor do you have?

This is from my post #50

Dick if you get suggestions from other member and do not understand how to complete the suggestions just ask for a little more help. We will give as much instruction as needed. We do want to help.

We do not know the skill levels of every member or how much time they have spent learning Windows 7.
What ever level you are at we can and will help if you will work with us.

It may not have worked nilank if he has too many icons. He may have a monitor with a 4:3 resolution instead of a wide screen 16:9 .

Exactly, because I mainly edit digital images that have a 4:3 aspect ratio.

Did ya try the CTRL+scroll wheel trick?

Once you have Windows Explorer open, you can pin it to the Taskbar for easy access (it's strange that there isn't one there already).

• Right click on the Windows Explorer bar/button on the Taskbar
• Choose "Pin this program to taskbar"
• A little version of the Windows Explorer icon should appear on your Taskbar

Click on the picture for the animation.
