Can't see desktop icons

dserodio said:

I can't see any icons on my desktop, not even the files I copied to my user's Desktop folder. Dragging on the desktop doesn't draw the expected selection rectangle.

How can I troubleshoot this problem?

Thanks in advance,
Daniel Serodio

If you right-click the desktop, select the "View" command, is the "Show desktop icons" item checked? If not, click it to return you desktop icons to their rightfull place...

Wow, that was fast! Thank you, that did it. I don't remember turning it off thou.

Glad I could help. I've been caught unawares before by the "no icons on the desktop" phenomenon.

And welcome to the forums!
