Joe Busuttil has a spectacular aura about
Default Desktop icons

My desktop icons will not open properly: instead of showing me their contents, every icon shows a dropdown menu that says: view > large icons > small icons (and so on). I am on Windows 10.
How to solve this problem, please?

I find the term ICON somewhat vague. An icon itself is simply a graphic display image.
You need to be more specific as to what kind of desktop item you are referring to. In a previous post I suggested to right-click and choose Properties. This will tell you if it is a shortcut, a folder, document or program.

I have been unable to replicate your issue when right-clicking a desktop icon, be it a shortcut, folder or something else.
The only way I was able to get a similar menu was when I right-clicked the Desktop itself. I suspect you might be accidentally doing this.


In future can you please post these types of questions into the Off-Topic Discussion section > Tips & Tricks.
You have instead been posting to Current Gnutella Client Programs > LimeWire+WireShare > LimeWire+WireShare Tips & Tricks.
Your questions have nothing whatsoever to do with LimeWire or WireShare or any other current gnutella program.
Not only have I asked you at least a few times over the past 10 years not to post there and also some years ago even sent you a private message with a link to the Off-Topic Discussion > Tips & Tricks. I suggested to you then, you should bookmark that page.
Yet you still repeat the same mistake. I have been forced over time to move your posts across the forum to the appropriate section. Please take more care in future when choosing which section to post.
