Cannot save anything on Desktop

[bindoksala]

Hello team,

I cannot save anything on the desktop, when I create new folder, new text document, new office file on the desktop by right clicking, its not saving on the desktop but automatically gets saved to the folder C:/User/.../Desktop.

Or whenever I paste any item on the desktop it gets saved to the above directory.
Also my user directory is showing a locked symbol but I can access it.

How can I make these items visible on the Desktop?

Regards
BS

The desktop is a folder.
Mine is located here:
C:\Users\username\Desktop

...or maybe I'm not understanding your issue...

Correct the desktop is a folder and is located at C:\Users\username\Desktop but its showing lock symbol but I can access it

The lock symbol is normal for that folder.

I still don't understand the issue that you are having with saving files to the desktop.

lock symbol is quite normal.

Your real desktop (what you see on your desktop) is C:\Users\username\Desktop ?
Please copy something in that folder and see if it appears on desktop

I wonder if we are dealing with this option:

Can you see Trashcan on Desktop? If not, the desktop icons might be turned off. If this is the case, right click an empty spot on desktop to open context menu and select View > Show Desktop Icons:
