You need to put the program shortcut in your "start up", folder in the start menu. That way it will start with windows each time. It is part of the installation process but you may have unchecked it.

Not very exciting but does the job.

For XP:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

Just copy a shotcut to the .exe to it.

I honestly don't see any difference i spend 90% of the time on the desktop and i use the metro/tile thingy and something extra I've learnt to work around it lol

 

[Wilkeh]

I like to keep everything plain and basic, no icons for me except the recycling bin!

If I had to have icons on my desktop I would probably use something like this -

Agreed, 90% of the time it's like Windows 7, but then you get the benefit of the apps etc with Windows 8. It also boots much quicker.

 

[Lal B3N]

Desktop icons - eww.

 

[Rob]

I haven't had icons in years, but today, I did. Looks cool.

 

[daydotz]

I dislike icons and and all the messy desktops in this thread, plain and simple is where it is at.
