Some executables not in desktop folder with XYplorer
Current version & Win 10x64 1803. I've got at least two executables that are on my desktop but aren't showing in my desktop folder with XYplorer, but are in Win Explorer. Is there a setting or something special about those? The two I'm sure of are, or should be, PDF Viewer.lnk and PDF Editor.lnk. Thanks,

They are probably in the Public Desktop, so you can either use this XY menu command to see them:
Favorites | Special System Folders | Desktop (All Users)
or access combined items like this:
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=19598&p=163949#p163528
Favorites | Special System Folders | Desktop (All Users)
or access combined items like this:

Thanks. Hadn't explored that one. I suppose that's the split between all users and just me during program install.

No - that's the split of Win Desktop into This User and All Users.highstream wrote: ↑18 Dec 2018 08:40 Thanks. Hadn't explored that one. I suppose that's the split between all users and just me during program install.
In general these are 2 different directories - while Win Explorer shows them mixed.
So: XY is more exact
