R-Clk the Desktop folders, select Properties. Are they "Hidden"? Then
undo that.

| Active Desktop is not being used, the desktop is not being
| viewed as a web page, and "Hide icons..." is not checked.
|
| Any other ideas as to how I can get the desktop icons to
| be displayed once again?
|
| Thanks.
