Hi Shaun,
Actually, you can't copy icons to the desktop in Windows 8. The desktop
is basically an empty window for displaying your walpaper. The
alternative solution is to pin an app or program to your taskbar.

If you never had to gut your config.sys to fix a problem or hack
something on your box to optimise it knowing that at any second it
could just go nuts and you'd have to start all over, well you don't
have the drive.
In a way windows is a bit more restricting.
sure you can hack away but the registry is not happy you change one
thing and will show it by taking out everything not just one module.
A reformat is required to make it all work again and hence I don't
touch things unless I need to.
I also like the search boxes the fact I don't have to navigate stupid
columns or lists like I have to do in xp really helps me a lot.
even if I know part of what I want thats fine.
I think for now we will have to have all our icons in folders on the
desktop and navigate that that way annoying that it is.
