Here is my situation. Why did every time I save file (for ex : .txt, .docx, .xslx ) in my desktop it was hidden. Fyi, my user was a standard user. But every time I open administrator user, the file was shown in the desktop and the same file was missing in the standard user. Is it have any relation with the user?

possibly, each account has their own separate desktop space, if you save files there, they are not shown on other users desktop.
Difference is that programs install their shortcuts on every desktop. (c:\users\all users\desktop) If I remember the folder correctly

If for whatever reason it is actually hidden, would right click on the file, properties, and uncheck Hide File. I feel like the above is more likely to be the cause though.
