Yesterday I did a clean Windows 11 install on a formatted C-drive of my laptop.
During the setup I signed on to my Outlook account.
This resulted in program desktop icons from my desktop Windows 10 pc being transferred to the laptop.
Obviously, they were all 'empty/blanc/white' images : the linked programs were not available on my laptop.
(And will not be)
Regretfully, at that point I made a mistake: I deleted them.
Today, after booting my Windows 10 desktop PC, 20 of the 42 desktop icons were gone... !
Great...
Restored todays Windows image: same situation
Restored yesterday's image: still the same
After an hour I gave up. Will try to recreate the shortcuts manually.
All this said, I agree/confess, I shouldn't have done this Windows 11 install.
