How to change the desktop icon in Windows Server R2

Windows Server R2 has been published on MSDN and TechNet Plus subscriptions, and Goxia has been downloaded and tested for the first time. From the changes in the UI, Windows Server R2 (WS08R2) uses the same UI that was designed for Windows 7. If you add the "Desktop Experience" component, you can get effects like Aero! Back to the point, I believe that already installed ws08r2 friends have found a "small problem", we have no way to change the desktop icon through the normal steps! Usually we can choose to display those special Windows desktop icons by changing the desktop icon in the personalization configuration, such as: "Computer" folder, personal folder, "network" and so on. But now facing the desktop Lonely "Recycle Bin", we have no strategy! Does Windows Server R2 not support displaying desktop icons?!

Ok! Goxia find the system help, find some clues, look! Follow the help tips to "click to open Personalization", prompting "this version of Windows does not provide personalization features", god! Is it necessary to install the desktop experience to modify the desktop icon? This is a big joke!

In fact, before looking for a help document, Goxia already found the Setup program to start the "Change desktop Icon", remember what changed from Windows Vista Start menu? OK, now click on "Start" in Windows Server R2 to see!

Remember Goxia earlier wrote some of the logs mentioned in the "Search Programs and Files" feature, this is a powerful feature, here you want to know or get the keyword or sentence, built-in Windows Search will give you the relevant results, quite rich! and also very accurate!

Now we are in the "Search programs and Files" to type the information we want to search, "Change desktop Icon" in the "icon" is the keyword, if the English system can enter "icon", then see what results will appear!

"Search programs and files" found relevant information about the icon, where "show or hide the common icon on the desktop" is we want to find large results, click on it. You can start the "Change Desktop Icon" setting program! Down, we can display these icons on the desktop as needed!

In the future, we need more flexibility to use the "Search programs and Files" function, "run" function from the Start menu removal seems to have some reason and basis!
