Windows is usually configured by default to clean your desktop of unused and rarely used icons every 60 days. You can change this setting by Right-Clicking your desktop, then click properties, select Desktop tab, then select the button Customise Desktop. Here you need to untick the box that says Run Desktop Cleanup every 60 days.
