I am so stupid. My friend gave me an android tablet w/ a bunch of stuff installed. I trashcanned it, accidently including my browser icon. I can get to it by pushing the windows button and E on the keyboard, then clicking browser on the resulting icon list. But how can I get back a browser icon? I'd like it on my home screen. Thanks, The Computer Ditz

Quoth Mytical View PostNext time you do it this way try Right clicking on the resulting icon and see if there is an option 'send to' and if so there might be a 'Desktop' that might work."Is it hot in here to you? It's very warm, isn't it?"--Nero, probably

Quoth 24601 View PostYou should be able to touch and hold the screen, then choose either widget , application, then from there or it might be right there on the list"Is it hot in here to you? It's very warm, isn't it?"--Nero, probably

Could try to re down load it from IE itself. Do a web search for IE 9 or is it 10 now? Try redownloading it?Engaged to the amazing Marmalady. She is my Silver Dragon, shining as bright as the sun. I her Black Dragon (though good honestly), dark as night..fierce and strong.

You have to do it from the home screen, it's how you add shortcuts. The same way you held the icon to trashcan them, just choose a blank spot on the home screen and hold. My Android tablet is charging (just found where daughter hid it) or I'd take pics. I can later if you need me to.

I wonder if the same thing used for Android smartphones would work on the tablet? (I has droid phone, but no tablets)
On a blank spot on the home page, press and hold for a second until a menu to "Add to home screen" comes up. Then go to shortcut/applications and scroll down until you see Browser. Should add it back to the home screen.. IF it works like the phones do.If I make no sense, I apologize. I'm constantly interrupted by an actual toddler.
