no desktop icons on my admin account

[Guest]

this is new for me.

somehow, my admin account has a completely blank desktop
all my icons are on my "guest" account. howeverm My default login is my
admin account and i am not able to see my program icons or create any
shortcut icons on this desktop, to help make it friendly. I have tried to
create new shortcuts to my desktop, but they keep sending them to my guest
account.
I need one of 2 things to happen or I will go craaaazy....
1-either swith my default login to my guest account where all my icons and
shortcuts are available to see and use OR
2- create shortcuts to my admin account which is my current default login....

Can somebody please help me?

very appreciatively,

Try this:

Using Explorer,

Copy the contents of "C:\Documents and Settings\(name of guest
acccount)\Desktop" to "C:\Documents and Settings\(name of adminstrator
acccount)\Desktop" using your adminstrator account. It won't work if you
use your guest account.

OR

If you want to create icons on your desktop do the following in your
adminstrator account:

Navigate in Explorer to "C:\Documents and Settings\(name of adminstrator
acccount)\Desktop". Once there, go to FILE --> NEW --> SHORTCUT. Follow
the steps, and you should be done.

Hope this helps.
