I have a friend that is running XP. She has a background displayed on her
desktop but none of the icons for the desktop are showing. I right-clicked
the desktop, chose Properties - Desktop - Customize Desktop and under the
heading Desktop Icons all of the choices are checked. What could have gone
wrong to keep these icons from showing? I disabled the background but that
had no effect. Any assistance would be appreciated. If any other info is
needed let me know.
 
This behaviour occurs if the Show Desktop Icons feature is turned off.
1. Right-click the desktop.
2. Point to Arrange Icons By and then click Show Desktop Icons.
