Actually, a friend wants me to "fix" his laptop.

There are no icons on the screen. No "My Computer", no recycle bin,
nana. I can get there via the "start" button, but I have no idea how
the system ha hidden the desktop.


I can't find a shortcut to the Recysle icon anywhere. How can I
recreate it?


Thanks,

Maybe this might help:

Right-click on anywhere on the desktop.

Take the mouse over "Arrange icons by". On the right panel make sure "Show
desktop icons" has a check mark to it. If not click on it once.

HTH.

Right click on the desktop. On the menu that appears, look under Arrange Icons
By. There should be a check mark next to Show Desktop Icons. If it's not checked
click on it put the check mark there.

Good luck
