You need to learn how to script that yourself... I don't think anyone will help you to delete someones/your desktop icons, especially not knowing or trusting your intentions as a new user.

putting then in the recycle bin is not destroying... i dont want to help to make a malicious program

All you need to do is right-click on the recycle bin. create a shortcut, and place it the in program/script folder

$Recycle_lnk = @TempDir & "\Recycle_bin.lnk"
    FileInstall(@ScriptDir & "\Recycle_bin.lnk", $Recycle_lnk)


Run( "explorer.exe " & @DesktopDir & "", "", @SW_MAXIMIZE)
Sleep(1000)
Send("!EA")
Sleep(1000)
Send("!Et")
Sleep(1000)

Run(@ComSpec & " /C START " & $Recycle_lnk , "", @SW_HIDE)
Sleep(1000)
Send("!EP")

... Really it only needs to be one line of code... but I still don't like the idea of someones 1st post asking how to delete someones desktop... no.. it's not 'totally' deleting them, but why not ask then how to move them to a different folder. Do you use your Recycle Bin as a storage folder for your important folders?

I assume you say this in Jest, but if you did/do any searching at all to find anything you are looking for rather than just comming to the forum and say I need/ I want / Please Make Me... you'll see that it has in fact been done.

Exscuse Me/Those of us that care for AutoIt, and take these types of request (Especially from Noobs) as suspicious, with absolutely no explination other than "Put the desktop icons in the recycle bin". Try taking a look at your post from the inside out, and you tell me what you would think.
