    Need help with Shortcuts and Desktop


    All my Shortcuts have now appeared in a Desktop file. I want them back on my Desktop Screen.
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks

    Have you tried.... Right click on your desktop, mouse over view, make sure there is a check mark beside Show Desktop Icons

    Any chance you may have clicked on Taskview icon in Task bar. If so click again and this could also return them.
