Hi,

I installed Zorin 8 0S and all was working fine, I used it for the whole day, then turned it off and the next day (today) I went ot use it, all is functioning ok, I can't see a problem anywhere, I can use all the applications, the systems tools and internet etc... but the desktop is blank. It has a black screen and the Home Folder and the Recycle Bin are not showing.

Does anyone have any ideas to what is happening? What may be causing this and how did it happen? Or how to to get the desktop to re-display again?

Thank you.
