Most of my icons gone after update or something!


Question Posted Sunday March 11 2012, 4:56 pm

There was this pop up saying something about an update or clean up or something(I did not really stop to read it. My bad.)I said okay to it. Then I sec or to later my sister saw that most of my mom's(yes my mom computer. Most time she let's us take care of update's)icons are GONE! I try ehow and they said to: toRight-click on an empty area of your desktop and select "Personalize" from the drop-down list. The Personalization window appears.
But when I try a have no personalize. And what I do have I try. Help!!!

if it's a option, I would definitely let your mom in on this because it could really end badly if you try to hide it and you have actually messed something up. I'm thinking maybe the update cleaned up a lot of shortcuts though. If the icons are off of the desktop, check in the program folders or on the start menu to see if the programs are still on the computer and if they are just make another shortcut for them on the desktop and no harm done. If not, then I'm sorry to say you'd have to re-download everything that was lost. :/ good luck to you!
