trouble with desktop icon

version 2.4.2
Desktop icon disappears when I restart Win7
Have to create a new icon and "send" it to the desktop

The setup program makes the shortcut not the program itself. And it is the same version setup program I have used on all the previous versions.

Does it still disappear after you reboot even when you make the shortcut yourself? If so then it sounds like something on your system is deleting for some odd reason.

I restarted as experiment and the icon stayed - A curiosity

Seems like a great tool you have here, especially helpful after HP's "Support Assistant" quit working - on BOTH of my computers!
Unfortunately HP has not allowed licensing of PC-Doctor on my HP notebook

I'll inform you if I have any further issues with the icon

thanks back to you

btw:

"A life lived in fear is a life half-lived"

-- from the award-winning 1992 Australian movie "Strictly Ballroom" - a very inspiring and entertaining film by Baz Luhrman - the "moral and the story" are literally amplified by a great soundtrack and you will give get goosebumps
