If you have lost the icons on the desktop, just open the task manager, by ctrl+alt+del just once, then go to process and terminate explorer.exe, this will close or shut your desktop....to bring it back, just ctrl+alt+del once more, and on the task manager, go to file....new task....and type explorer or explorer.exe this will restore your desktop, sometimes this helps to boost your pc when the pcs has been running slow due to ram ..... hope it solves your problem...!! Cheers!!
