Periodically, explorer will flash briefly and I will see multiple icons
(about 4 or 5) for my Desktop added to the folder list on the left.
These are real links - if I click on them, I see items on my desktop.
However, the icons for these "desktop" icons are for Recycle bin,
desktop, explorer, and a yellow folder icon.
Additonally, Explorer no longer properly displays the folder tree view
for sub-folders. As I navigate through folders, they are updated in
the file list on the right, but the tree view on the left does not
display the sub-folders.
This has probably happened to someone else, but I am having a hard time
researching this. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
Thanx!

Request that your PC supplier provide a pc that works. If they cant,
then do a chargeback.
You might be on the right track. I DID have the "Desktop" toolbar
enabled in the taskbar. I disabled that and I will see if the problem
resurfaces (it only happened sporatically). It's annoying that this
happens on my one computer - I have two other computers with this
option enabled & they have never experienced this issue.
Thank you very much for your reply!
