Imagine, as you normally turned off yourcomputer last night, and today you turn on and after the download you see that all the shortcuts from the desktop have disappeared! What happened? Where did everything go? Do not panic, there may be several reasons for this strange behavior of your friend-computer. In this material, we'll try to figure out what happened, and most importantly, how to get back the missing badges.
If all the labels from the worker have completely disappearedtable, and it is virgin empty, it is possible that the reason is very simple, and even a child can solve this "problem". But it can be and in another way, it happens that such symptoms can signal big troubles. Let's start to find out what really happened.
The first possible reason
So, if you have missing shortcuts from your desktop,The first thing you should do is check, maybe some joker just deleted them in the trash. If the computer does not have a password and other members of the family or colleague have access to it, then this option is quite appropriate. How to make sure that this is exactly such an unpleasant misunderstanding? Very simply, create a new folder or file on the desktop. If everything went in its normal mode and you are looking at a new object that appeared on your screen, then, really, someone deleted your shortcuts.
But in the case when the object is created, but it is not visible on the desktop, it means that the reason number two.
The second reason
Not so many times I have observed such a picture,the person says that he had missing shortcuts from the desktop, and when you come to the computer, it turns out that he accidentally pressed the right button from scratch and selected the item "hide icons" in the drop down menu.
Check it out for Windows XP is quite simple,right click on the desktop, point at the menu item "Arrange", there check the checkmark in front of "Show Icons", if it is set, shoot.
In Windows 7 the sequence of actions is even easier, right click on the table, go to the menu "View" and there we check the same tick. If it is, we shoot and enjoy the icons that have appeared.
But if that did not help, then you should move on to the third point.
The third option
If nothing has helped and you are stillyou observe the same emptiness on the screen, it means, most likely, your computer is attacked by a virus that accidentally (and sometimes it is) or intentionally (which happens much more often) made so that you have missing shortcuts from the desktop.
Here it should be specially noted, the third reason is, as a rule, a complex disappearance. Not only the shortcuts, but also the "Start" menu and the lower toolbar are lost.
This happens when, for some reason, the "Explorer" process, refuses to start at the system startup. But more often it is prevented by a virus.
Since it is he who is responsible for all the shortcuts, the taskbar and the Start menu.
To help the computer, you can try the following actions.
Once all these steps are done in the correct order, you should see a desktop with all the shortcuts and a "Start" menu with all the panels.
But if you get the resulting error "File not(this also happens), then this file is either corrupt or it's just not in the system.How to get it back? There are two ways - simple and fast (ask the friend and rewrite from the USB flash drive to the Windows folder), or install it from the disk that was used during the initial installation of the OS.
Then be sure to check your computer with antivirus, it is possible that such a result is not accidental, but is caused by the activity of the virus programs.
If you have such a useful tool as "System Restore" working correctly, then you can try to use it to quickly eliminate all problems.
I hope that thanks to this article, you will understand where the shortcuts from the desktop of your PC disappeared.
