Hello. Will need a little more information about your computer. In
general, JFW should read most things automatically when It's focused on
it. If the desktop icons are not being read, it may be an issue with your
display settings. For best results set the display color to "256" and the
screen resolution to "600X800". If you're using a fancy wall paper, choose
something else a little more generic.
