Hello again,
http://www.ehow.com/about_6697490_ntuser-dat-file_.html
I have opened Windows Explor. and where is the hidden ribbon

press "Windows-E" to open Windows Explorer and then click "View" on the ribbon bar. Click "Options," and then choose "Change Folder and Search Options." Click the "View" tab in the Folder Options window, select "Show Hidden Files, Folders and Drives" in the Advanced Settings pane and then click "OK."

I have no idea what you are trying to describe.

 

When you say icons, you mean the icons that launch programs correct?

yes the icon of software installed and saved files on desktop are not showing.
how and where to copy.
sorry my English grammar is weak may by i was not understanding your previous reply.!

 

Sorry but I don't know how else to say it.

Do you know what copy means?

Say UserA works. Desktop icons are showing as you want. But when you log in as UserB the desktop icons do no show.

Go to the \Users\UserA\desktop, select all of the files, right click and copy them

Now go to \Users\UserB\desktop and paste the files.

 

COPY THE FILES FROM THE WORKING ONE TO THE NON WORKING ONE!

Which files?

 

I have done copy not working!!

 

Do you know what copy means?

Yes Sir i know copy meaning it copy file from one adr to another adr memory

 

On my Win10 laptop (I don't know if this applies to earlier OS versions or your PC), right-clicking on the desktop brings up this :-

Make sure 'Show desktop icons' is ticked.

 

Here is screen shot from my pc

 

I have done copy not working!!

Where you logged in as the non working user? If so log out and log back in.

If that does not work, post a screen shot of the non working user's desktop directory.

How to get Desktop Directory ?

 

He doesn't have "Show Desktop Icons" ticked.

 

This?

 

You need to find someone that speaks your language. You need to be able to converse at some level.

READ post #14.

 

If you had two monitors attached at one time then the icons could be displaying in that space. Djsfantasi's solution should fix that.

If that doesn't do it:

1. Check the Recycle Bin
2. Make sure you are logged in under the same account when you created the icons.

3. If some or all applications are missing from All Programs under Start on the task bar then this is a good indication you are logged in on a different account.

4. All of the users will be found under C:\Users. Any icons will be found under each name in the Destop directory. If they are not there and not in the Recycle bin then they are gone.

1. Check the Recycle Bin

I regularly use CCleaner which clean Recycle bin.
Everything is working fine all program are there except when i find paint it does not not show it show corel paint.
may be this indication of wrong.
and i can see the whole icon while seraching.
4. All of the users will be found under C:\Users. Any icons will be found under each name in the Destop directory. If they are not there and not in the Recycle bin then they are gone.
as i send screenshot.

 

Do you know what post #14 is?
