Windows Forum / Internet Explorer / General Topics / June 2008desktop shortcuts
Since the last update my desktop shortcuts will not open. I have re-created them and the problem still exists. Any suggestions? What update?

There were around 11 updates for windows xp and microsoft office and I thought some updates for security issues in IE the week of Aug. 7th 2006. > What update? > > > Since the last update my desktop shortcuts will not open.

Any suggestions? Sandi: followed this link which is somewhat close to my problem - here it is: I just installed IE7. I have a series of URL icons on my desktop for rapid access to the sites. They will no longer open IE--IE7 crashes and asks for an error report. I have to open IE to the home page vis the standard blue "E" icon on the taskbar and then click the links on my desktop to visit the sites. I have tried accessing the sites with IE running, then saving the sites in Favorites, making copies of the URL icon from favorites and placing them on the desktop. Still no luck. I have uninstalled and reinstalled !E7 several times? Thanks. Jack > You're welcome. > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > >> >> > re-created > >> >> > them and the problem still exists. Any suggestions? I was experimenting with this problem - when I turned off "tabbed browsing" the problem noted with desktop shortcuts resolved -but of course, why use IE7 if tabbed browsing and it's options aren't available - thought this might be a clue as to the bug reported here and in other posts. any ideas?

Even my previous post hung up and did not enter properly. My desktop icons were not working, and at the time of the post I couldn't even access the link to the solutions page you had posted. But I have fixed my problem of desktop icons not working by going into the internet settings and changing the tabs option to either Open in New Window or Let IE Decide, rather than Open in New Tab. Now I just hope this message posts correctly.... > > Hyperlinks don't work: > > http://inetexplorer.mvps.org/answers/48.html [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > >> > re-created > > >> > them and the problem still exists.
