I am having a problem in that I added an Administrator account to the login. I am running windows 10 1709 build (16299.192). I logged in and Windows 10 had the "Hello" screen that you see when first installing a new copy. Once I got to the desktop, I have very few desktop shortcuts compared to my "limited Admin account I normally use. Why? And how do I get all the desktop icons to be visible in the Administrator account? Thanks ahead of time.

Go to:
All Settings/ Personalization/ Themes/ Should see a blue link somewhere on the page that says "Change Desktop Icons"... Then check the icons that you want to be shown on the desktop.

If it's a new user account that you are referring to, its desktop would be different than that of the older account; it wouldn't contain the information of the older desktop

Thread Closed...I figured it out. Just copied all my desktop to the administrator account.
