To restore desktop icons, we first need to identify the reasons for the loss of desktop icons.

Desktop icon lost cause 1, desktop accidentally set caused. The solution is to right-click the desktop and select "Arrange icons"--"Show desktop icons". If you lose the main icons such as "My Computer,""Internet Neighborhood,""Recycle Bin,""Internet Explorer," you can right-click the desktop, select "Properties," then select "Desktop"--"Custom Desktop," tick the front of the lost icons, and click OK.

Desktop icon is missing reason 2, caused by viruses. The obvious difference between this and the first case is that the right click is not possible (no reaction). The most common situation is that the virus deletes or tampers with the system core file explorer.exe, or the virus directly deletes explorer.exe or explorer.exe infected with the virus and killed by antivirus software such as Kabba. The workaround is to re-copy an explorer.exe file into the c:Windows folder.

There are many ways to replicate:

a, can enter the DOS system that supports USB devices, copy explorer.exe copied from other computers in mobile devices to c:windows file;

b. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del key combination, select "Task Manager"-select "File" menu-"New Task"-"Browse", change the position to the drive letter of the mobile disk (usually at the end), right click Explorer.exe file, copy this file to C:Windows folder;

c. If the network is unblocked, follow step b, select IEXPLORE.EXE under the C:Program Files Internet Explorer folder when browsing, you can surf the Internet and download the explorer file to C:Windows.
