How do you remove icons from screen but retain content on hard drive please?

Generally, there are shortcuts to various applications or software on the desktop. I guess you can delete the shortcuts and still find the applications on the "start" menu. But, if the applications are directly saved to the desktop, you will first have to move them to the hard drive and ensure you have a copy of it before deleting. Suggestion: Delete some application shortcut from the desktop which is not important for you. Search the "start" menu and see if you can find it. And then, implement this on the other important applications.
