Fix for Missing ITUNES Icon on Desktop
These steps worked for me:
Go to FILE EXPLORER (the yellow folder icon that may be on
your task bar or elsewhere on your desktop). Click the icon.
When the FILE EXPLORER screen opens, go to the top right
corner search bar that may read “HOME” and type “itunes” in the search bar.
Click to start the search, if it does not automatically populate ITUNES files.
If ITUNES is installed on your computer, you will see many ITUNES
files now listed.
Go to the top right of this screen of listings and slightly
minimize the screen. Use your mouse to move the screen so that your desktop
underneath is now seen.
Go back to the FILE EXPLORER screen and right click your
ITUNES LIBRARY file with the ITUNES music note symbol. Drag that file onto your
desktop.
Voila! You now have the ITUNES icon on your desktop.
EXTRA TIP -- You can use this search-drag-drop method for many
other files on your computer that you want to appear on your desktop.
