Check to see if Show Desktop Items is checked/unchecked

1. Right-click on empty area of desktop
2. See if item is checked

Just a little more information might yeild a answer.

Which update?

Have you tried to use system restore to roll back to a time before the
upgrade attempt?

Right click on your desktop / Properties.

Go to Desktop Tab / Customize Desktop.

From there check what you want to see on your desktop
