Answer» Salute! amigos'! Does anyone know how to get desktop folder icons to appear The icons on my desktop are OK, it is just the small icons within my desktop folders that will not show an icon ...for the most part anyway? Not sure what you mean by "small icons within my desktop folders". To put a shortcut to a file or folder on your desktop, follow the procedure at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/create-delete-shortcut#1TC=windows-7Quote from: soybean on January 15, 2014, 08:33:53 AM Not sure what you mean by "small icons within my desktop folders". To put a shortcut to a file or folder on your desktop, follow the procedure at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/create-delete-shortcut#1TC=windows-7 Like most of us I suppose, I have folders on my desktop in which I store different programs (thus ELIMINATING desktop clutter). The icons of the programs that I have stored in these folders are not showing? The box standard Windows icon appears? Even though these same programs HAD icons when I first installed them on my desktop?? AWW ..don't anyone know what I mean here?? I think I understand your issue, do you mean all icon in your desktop does not have any ASSOCIATION with any application? and they all look alike. Just like if you have excel file and you do not have Excel installed? If that what you see i think you have big corruption in your system, back up your file and rebuild your system. when you open these icon in your desktop, do they open correctly? if Yes, you have a problem with your video card, memory or both. If NO, that mean your system is corrupted. Good Luck.

It is when I put a PROGRAM into a 'desktop folder' that the icon disappears and YEs it does look as if it has no association! However, the program still works despite no icon?? See what I mean guys??? The programs still WORK??
