Desktop Icons Transfer

Desktop Icons Transfer

I have 12 desktop icons that I want to transfer to an external drive.  When I do the transfer, only 6 icons get transferred.

Why is that?

Thanks,

Jerry

@Jerry8A  You may have a mixture of icons in your own user profile’s Desktop folder and the All Users/Public Desktop folder.

desktop icons are shortcuts to programs residing on the hard drive or to files you have on the hard drive
