Best Answer

The desktop is the home screen for your operating system, not to be confused with your homepage for your internet connection.

The desktop should contain a tool bar at the bottom (if you are operating a PC) with a START menu on the left and a time clock on the right.

It normally contains an icon labeled MY COMPUTER, one for RECYCLE BIN, and sometimes one for MY DOCUMENTS. You can also add as many 'shortcuts' to files as you like (I.e. Internet explorer, my pictures, my music, etc.) You can edit the icons for each shortcut as you like.

You can also edit the picture displayed on your desktop by going to the control panel and clicking on DISPLAY. There you can edit everything from the color to the size of your icons and even your screensaver.
