Hello. Our other laptop is a Lenovo machine running Windows 10, and The Curse of Lenovo seems to have hit it. I have no idea what I did, but I obviously accidentally clicked on something on the desktop, and it's gone. In its place I have a dimmed desktop background picture, and three large (3cm square) icons in the middle: "OneKey Recovery", "Account" which has a Lenovo padlock symbol on it, and "OneNote".
All my buttons along the bottom have gone, and so too have my shortcuts. "On/off", settings and file explorer are still there on the left, together with a little round desktop picture, which when I hover over it shows the account username. Top left I now have three new icons: from the top, a hamburger which says "expand" when hovered over, one which says "pinned tiles" and one which says "all apps".
How do I recover my desktop please?

Welcome to MSE

Hmm, never seen that before - CTRL+ALT+DEL , choose task manager, end the task ?0 -
Thanks AndyPix, but when I did that, it says "There are no running apps" ...
ETA - just noticed that I also now have a little "touch keyboard" icon at bottom right alongside the time and date. That wasn't there before!0 -
Have you put in tablet mode accidentally? Google to see how to switch to see if you have.0
