My FIRST Bad Vista Experience

[NewsBot]

Update: Somehow "User Files" got turned off in my Desktop Icon Settings. Maybe I accidentally did a fancy keystroke?

 

I was working on the computer one day (In Photoshop, I think), when (for some unknown reason), my desktop flickered, and all icons with the exception of my Recycling Bin vanished.

 

I think, oh, maybe I need to "show desktop icons", but it was already checked. Just to be safe, I unchecked, and rechecked - still no icons.

 

Did they get moved off the screen? I turned on "Auto arrange" - still no icons.

 

WTF!? Where are my icons? Did they all get deleted? I navigate to my desktop in windows explorer, and whammo, they are ALL THERE.

 

I've even used the old "reboot" trick - no help at all.
