Desktop problem by EBFL on 08-08-2007 at 11:22 AM
When uploading pictures to my computer from my camera i forgot to click a folder so they went on the desktop, so now, theres pictures that's not on the screen, so how can i delete them quickly?

Open up any folder and put "C:\Documents and Settings\<USERNAME>\Desktop\" in the URL bar thingy, then it will show the Desktop as it would any other folder (with scrollbars and all).

That should work, but if it doesn't, open up my computer and press the backspace key, that will definitely get you there. I only say this because for some reason, the desktop on this machine is C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Jokes\Desktop. No idea how that happened or who did it.
