My computer was running fine yesterday. I was copying my iTunes music library file into Drop Box to transfer to my new computer. I left this unattended to do something else. When I came back to check on it, all of my desktop icons were gone and so was the task bar. Control, Alt, Delete did not...

Hi,
I've read other threads about this, and seen some video on Youtube on how to address this problem. But nothing has worked for me.
So to summarise, often when I start my computer up (but not every time) the icons on Windows 10 have re arranged themselves. My first port of call was obviously...

My Quick Launch area is set to Autohide. The problem I have is, after I have booted and used the computer for a while, I can no longer get the cursor to the top of the Quick Launch area. If I go beyond a certain height with the cursor, The Quick Launch area hides.' That means that I can no...
Hello guys.
I installed Windows 10 a few weeks ago and generally paid no attention to it as I was busy playing videogames. I checked to see what I could do just yesterday and I am pretty frustrated as when I click on Search the web and Windows, nothing shows us and it's just that the default...

All was well when Nvidia comes up offering latest driver, without thinking I accepted it & installed.
Now the graphics have changed everywhere, test even in extra large show tiny, photos open stretched also everything else.
I reverted to the previous driver, changed all relevant in Nvidia...

I had icons on my bookmarks bar in Chrome. For example the icon for Facebook was the little blue box with an F in it, the Twitter icon had the little bird, Gmail and Yahoo mail had the mail icons. I recently had to uninstall Chrome and successfully imported my websites into IE 11. Now, none of...
I had a catastrophic failure, just created a new Windows 7 Ultimate system with very little installed. I attached a disk drive from the previous system that has data on it (it wasn't damaged). All files are accessible but I CANNOT CHANGE THE ICONS ON ANY OF THE FOLDERS.
I've done all of the...
Right now i am on windows 10 and when i boot up my computer, i log in but then the icons on my desktop will not load. All I see is my wallpaper and my taskbar. I cannot click anything on the taskbar but i can move my mouse around. I wait for about five minutes but nothing ever moves. I end up...
OK, I upgraded from 8.1 to 10. Here's where the fun begins. If I pull an icon to the edge of the screen, a third of it goes off screen. The Taskbar is 2/3 off the screen. If I go full screen with my browser (Firefox) it too blows off the screen. The Menu Bar is off screen. The minimize button...
How on earth do I prevent my startup desktop icons from moving on each reboot? The icons all stay in the same area of the screen but randomly change positions. I have tried several things as suggested by a google search but non seem to work. Is there a definitive fix to stop this behaviour?
When I right click in certain areas on my computer, I get a Not Responding error. This happens with my mouse and trackpad when I right click, so it's my computer and not mouse. For example:
Applies to:
- Desktop folders/icons/files. When my desktop stops responding, it flashes white, refreshes...

Anyone have an idea on how to reduce the system tray icon sizes? I don't mean the icon image but the click/touch targets. The spacing between systray icons are larger than in previous versions of Windows.
However, in nearly everyone else's W10 screenshots, I see everyone's systray icons much...
Good day, community!
One day I tried Groove to find my music and assigned it to search on :C, which gave me over 7k titles. So when I tried to change where it should search again, nothing happened, after which I decided to restart the pc to see if anything has changed. It has indeed. After the...
Last night i installed windows 10. It took a while but in the end, it succeeded. Except for the icons in my desktop kept disappearing and appearing... I shut down my computer and when i started my pc this morning, it didn't work! I got the choice between restarting my pc or opening advanced...

I upgraded to Win 10 64 and had a few bumps but one I have not figured out is on Win 7 I could reposition my desktop icons wherever I wanted. After the upgrade I had the same desktop as I had on 7 where I could use all desktop icons as normal but found I can not move/reposition them. It seems...
