You can clear desktop icons via the Local Security Policy under User settings

Or you could right click on your desktop, choose active desktop, and take the checkmark
away from show desktop icons. Yeah, I think that works..
Best of Luck

Oops, my mistake. If you go to the Run menu and type "gpedit.msc" (without the
quotes) this will run the group policy editor. Under User Configuration >> Administrative
Templates >> Desktop. You will find "Hide all desktop icons"

Hi,
I am not getting option "show desktop icons" in active desktop after right clicking
on desktop. Can you help me to add that option in Active Desktop.
Thanks & regards,
Dev

If you are running "active desktop" on Windows 2000, you do not need to go to the
registry nor run a program to have a desktop free of icons/shortcuts. Simply right
click somewhere on your desktop and under 'active desktop' unclick 'show desktop
icons'.
