Hello,

I have this minor issue with my desptop icons, you know when you hover you cursor on a file the file is highlighted and when you click on the file it is a little more highlighted to let you know that the file is selected, well on my desktop, when I click on an icon, it does not highlight it, it is only when I move my cursor away that the icon gets highlighted, but because of that I have no way of knowing if I selected a file or not when my cursor is on it. Is it normal and is there a setting that can change that?

I don't know if it is very clear, I tried to explain it as best as I can, I did record a video showing the problem but I don't know if I can link it?

On top of what has already been suggested, create another user account and login in under that.
That will determine if it is a system wide issue, or just with your user profile.
