Resolved Windows on screen Icons deleted.

Periodically, Windows Icons are removed from monitor screen, while all other Icons remain sighted. Help on what is causing this error. Thanks, Bobby.

 

Could be a Virus/Malware/Spyware causing this. Are you sure you are clean?

Thanks for suggestions. I have made copies of the trouble Icons and saved them in a folder kept on the desktop and see if this will solve the issue when next it happens.
