I'd be grateful for any help.
I regularly download critical updates for XP, especially
if they are connected with security. In the last week I
have downloaded the the two most recently released, and I
have noticed an effect caused to some of the "shortcuts"
on my desktop: those for "Floppy Disk (A)";"DVD
Player"(in my case "(E)"); and "CD Recorder" (in my
case "(D)")no longer work, and I cannot reinstate them. I
find these shortcuts helpful, and it is a nuisance to
have them go wrong.
Other shortcuts are not affected.
Has anyone else noticed a similar effect after recent
security updates, or have I stupidly done something else
which is totally unconnected?
