firefoxthebomb Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 if you right click on the taskbar and then do properties, and go to the start menu tab and select the Classic Start Menu, it will add all those icons for you on the desktop.

Bud4wiser Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 The "official" way to design new user desktops would be to use the Group Policy editor. {gpedit.msc}However, you may get the results you need by simply adding the icons to the "default user" profile. And either copy the profile to new users, or -- and I'm guessing -- the Icons will just show up when you create new accounts.I just double checked, the "default user" thing -work, but the Icons show up as shrotcuts, not native 'system icons'... hope that's good enough....
