Windows desktop Icon Failure resolution

Symptom one: My "local Connection" and "ADSL" icons are missing from the Network Connections window

This could be your network. The Connections service is disabled for the reason that the view is as follows: Enter "Services.msc" in the Run window and find the name "network" in the list of services on the right side of the Open Services window Connections service to see if its status is "started". If not, then you need to set it to started.

Symptom two: The taskbar button suddenly disappears

I do not know if you have encountered such a situation, when the Internet in Windows 98, if the open IE window too much, the taskbar button will be squeezed very small, and sometimes can not see the button on the text. But in Windows XP if you open too many windows, you will find these dense buttons suddenly reduced a lot, what is this? Where are the buttons that suddenly disappeared?

This is actually a feature of Windows XP. This feature is called "Group similar taskbar button", when the taskbar button is too much, it will group the same type of button grouped on a button to streamline the taskbar. To restore these hidden taskbar buttons, we can right-click the Start button, select the Properties option, and remove the tick before the "Group similar taskbar button" option in the Taskbar tab in "Taskbar appearance."

Symptom Three: The buttons for the work column are missing?

Use the administrator's account to enter Windows XP, the work of the missing account deleted, and then set up a new account, the name can be the same.

Symptom Four: The icon for the Windows XP desktop is missing?

After the boot into the desktop, the desktop everything is gone, but can be from the work of the administrator to execute the program, what is the problem? Is it poisoning?

Windows XP has a feature that is to hide the icons on the desktop! So it may have inadvertently changed the setting of this option, as long as the right button on the desktop, select "Arrange the Icon"-"Show Desktop Icon" on it:
