Disappear Desktop Icon

Postby twai » 05.01.2010 04:44:53

Hi,

I have been using Dexpot 1.5 for a while, today my desktop icons had disappeared, I can't get it back even with exiting Dexpot. The only way is to restart Windows without starting Dexpot, but once I start Dexpot manually, the desktop icons disappear again. There is no way I can get it back!

I also have try to uncheck auto arrange and arrange to grid, but still cannot work. Is this a bug in the application?

Regards,
Tim

Hello,
I have a similar issue. The program was working fine then one day I started my computer and I only get desktop icons on screen one but on screen 2-4 they are missing. I can not add them.. when i do they only show up on desktop 1. I have checked settings and cannot find a reason.
Thanks and a great program so far! I will definitely pay..

Hi,

I am using Windows XP and when I got the above problem, I simply click Windows'
"Show Desktop" icon on the Quick Launch toolbar. Then icons of desktop come alive!

One who missing "Show Desktop" icon can recovery it according to the following link:

Hope this is helpful.

I had similar problem. When I started my computer, the icons were only available on desktop 1. Only way two fix this was to restar manually Dexpot. But now I got mutch easier way to fix this.

I am also having the disappearing icons and folders issue, but using windows explorer to the desktop I can still see they are there just invisible...

I am using Windows 7 Home Premium version.

I tried the Show desktop method but I cannot get it to pin on the taskbar...

I am on the edge of switching to other virtual desktop app like crystal desktop or virtualwin if the issue is not fixed... it is very annoying....
