Expand the branches to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer.

Double-click the NoDesktop value. If it's not there, select New from the Edit menu, and then select Binary Value; type NoDesktop for the name of the new value.

Replace the contents with 01 00 00 00. If at any time you wish to restore the desktop icons, just delete the NoDesktop value or replace its contents with 00 00 00 00.

Note that this is a binary value, and the input box may not behave like a normal text box; if you mess up, just choose Cancel and try again.

Click OK and close the Registry Editor. You'll have to log out and then log back in for the change to take effect.
