Try right clicking the icon and select properties.
Check the "Target" area. It should contain the file's directory.
The address should be COMPLETE for example "C:\Program Files\AVG\AVG2015\avgui.exe".
The directory "C:\" depends on which hard drive your file is and the file format like in this case is a program should have ".exe" at the back. If any of these is missing your short cut will not work.
You should also check on the compatability of the file / program with your OS.

Is it possible to have an iconI love your puzzles -I would like an Icon on my desk so that I wouldn't havehe address everytime I play - I've tried but can't

If you mean a link to a website address on your desktop, then right click on the desktop, point the mouse to "new" and wait for the submenu, and select "shortcut". It will ask you for an address or location. Enter, or copy and paste the website address that you want the icon to link to and press return. Next it will ask you to name it.....type in whatever you want the icons caption to be, and press return. That should put your new icon on the desktop. Test it to make sure it works. Hope this helps.

Windows fefuses to recognize and open programs on my computer

THis is happening when the program that patronize the shortcut is no longer existent in the system ...or the location was changed ...Just delete all short cuts that does that ...and make new ones from the start /all programs ..or for programs installed in a different director (folder) and not in C/program files.. just go to the installation location and make a new short cut..
If my computer and my documents ...and the other original windows desktop icons make the same ...just delete them ..than ..right click on desktop ...choose properties..than desktop ...here you will find customize desktop ...and in there just tick all cases for icons you want on desktop ...This action will place again the original icons on desktop ..For the rest just make new shortcuts from the original execution of the program ...
