I just got 8.1 on a new laptop. Windows had been updating and at the end I found these files on the desktop: desktop.ini (2 the same) and Thumbs.db. Where do I put them so they function as they should (I'm assuming that I shouldn't just delete them) and how do I do that?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Hi lynyl, welcome to Windows EightForums! :)

Are the files somewhat translucent? If so they should be hidden:
(when hidden they pose no threat)
