Guest BW Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Hello, I am having an IE icon issue. Before you lambast me for posting in the incorrect forum, please note that I was unable to navigate to the IE community. I was told it was not available. My issue is this: I have no "official" IE7 icon on my desktop. All avenues of pursuit that I know, including modifying the "HideDesktopIcons" (or something like that) method. There is no checkbox in desktop properties that I can check. Please help BW

Guest BW Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Re: IE7 Desktop Icon Ju.c, this took care of the issue. I had tried this method before, as described in my post, but must have navigated to the incorrect key (ehck!) No I will have to chase down my error, or I can simply do yet another clean install, which is what started this problem in the first place. thanks again!
