The desktop folder was all ready in explore when I
received the computer. What I am trying to do is to have
the same icons in my second user account as I have in my
account.. When I click on the desktop folder in windows,
the icons on my computer desktop do not come up in
windows explore desktop folder.

There are two desktop folders. One under your name and one under All =
Users.
