Shortcuts in desktop can't be in visiable sometimes

As the subject says.

Please provide more information.

Do you mean visible or invisible?

Should the question be:

"Shortcuts in desktop can't be visible sometimes?"

As in, you can't see them sometimes?

Or is it:

"Shortcuts in desktop can't be [made] invisible sometimes?"

As in you can't hide them when you want to?

Whatever your question, Jon, and the true experts, need more information before they can answer whichever question you really are asking.

What I mean is "Shortcuts on Desktop is invisible at times which occurs frequently in shortcut that created from a new installation".

Not all new installations create desktop shortcuts. Some – hint hint GPSoftware – make it optional. Some just don't do it.

Is the shortcut there and invisible? Or simply not there?

What makes you think that Opus is involved in this? I thought that Explorer handled the desktop.

I'm still not sure what this thread is about.

Maybe a screenshot of what's wrong would clarify.

That makes two of us. As Jon's request for more details went ignored I have just been fishing around for inspiration.

It doesn't help[ that the language is confusing. What does this mean?

There seem to be at least two sentence in there trying to get out.

"Shortcuts on Desktop [are] invisible at times."

"This occurs frequently with shortcuts created [by] a new installation [of a program]."

But that is just a guess on my part.

If a shortcut does not show up on the desktop, I would use the "/Desktop" shortcut in Opus to see what is really in that directory and if it differs from what I see on the desktop.


The "ListPro" is a new programme I installed, in Desktop, it's there.
but open Desktop in DOpus, I can't see this shorcut.

It looks like you're in a folder off your D:\ drive, presumably the folder where your private desktop files are kept. (It's not the standard path so I have to guess here.)

The ListPro shortcut has probably been created in the public desktop folder, which is shared by all users on the machine.

Go to /Desktop in Opus, it will take you to the virtual desktop folder, which shows everything from both your private desktop folder and the public desktop folder. The missing file should then show up there.

(Also, make sure that under Settings > Preferences / Folders / Virtual Folders, in the top section for the Desktop, you have All Users / Shared Desktop contents turned on, or Opus will hide the public desktop files.)

I redirect the default desktop from C:\ to D:\桌面, so when I go to /Desktop in Opus will access to the D:\桌面.

This is just the quetion I met,
(Also, make sure that under Settings > Preferences / Folders / Virtual Folders, in the top section for the Desktop, you have All Users / Shared Desktop contents turned on, or Opus will hide the public desktop files.)

Thank you, I've made a big mistake to cancel the "All Users / Shared Desktop", my english is so poor :cry:
