The First Steps...
Understanding Your Desktop...
The Desktop
The desktop is where you can place various things — folders, files and
shortcuts to programs you use. It is also the place where program windows
appear, such as the HP Brio Center window.
The Recycle Bin
This is a temporary storage place for things you have deleted. It fills up
with all the things you have deleted until you decide to empty it. You can
use it to find things you might have deleted by mistake.
Icons
Icons are small graphical objects that represent a particular
feature, area or shortcut of your computer. Double-clicking on
them opens that feature. They can be dragged around the desktop, and they can
be placed in the recycle bin.
