Hiya broe23, I wish it was related to that however it is not.
I have managed to remove this issue and am unable to recreate the issue sadly as for the fix I also fluked that and am trying to recreate the entire event again and how it was fixed ( not 100% sure how I fixed it, however it has something to do with right clicking on the desktop.
I just hate it when things like this happen for little to no reason.
Thankyou all for your replies and time in endeavouring to correct this. Woohoo fixed for now.
all you have to do is. 1.Right click on your screen 2.Click View 3.Click on either Small Icons, Medium Icons Or Large Icons and it should be back to your normal desktop icons.
