Re: start button taskbar and desktop icons disapear
What is happening is that explorer is crashing...why it is crashing is
another matter. As always, run the usual group of Antivirus and malware
programs as they are often the cause
If that does not clear it up,
start > run, type
eventvwr.msc
<enter>
Right click application and choose CLEAR ALL EVENTS, do not save the log
Right click system and choose CLEAR ALL EVENTS, do not save the log
Reboot. Work with computer until error recurs.
When the error occurs, reboot
Now, again
start > run, type
eventvwr.msc
<enter>
Look under systems and applications for items with red X s that happened at
the SAME time as your problem...list them here.
DOUBLE CLICK the event(s) and you will be presented with a dialogue box. On
each dialogue box is a COPY button that looks like two pages of paper. Click
that. Now, right click in the ADD REPLAY box, and choose PASTE from the
context menu.
