Desktop Doesn't Load

daxleet
i click on my login name, it says Loading settings, then the screen just goes to a blank screen with just my wallpaper showing. You can press CTRL+ALT+DELETE, and switch users with WINDOWS+L. So it doesn't freeze. I tried ending and re starting explorer.exe, and still it did not work. Please help me, thanks.

Maybe you have no desktop items. XD Just kidding

Well when I have problem I close EVERYTHING. Hit CTRL + ALT + DEL and end everything, including your system operated programs. Then reboot. If that doesn't work, maybe your computer is taking it's time loading your desktop icons.

Or instead of using CTRL + ALT + DEL, Hit Start > Run > explorer.exe.

If that doesn't work, try calling customer service/help. You computer may be damage, or screwed.

I hope I helped.

How the hell are you typing now?

Unless you used the ctrl + alt +del....

daxleet,

See if you can enter into the safe mode. If you are not familiar how to enter, when your computer starts just hold on to F8 until DOS based menu shows up and select to be started in the safe mode. If your computer successfully starts in the SAFE MODE, restart the computer as normal to see if that fixes the problem.

If not, you can always fix the booting information by inserting Windows XP (and I assume you have Windows XP) setup disk and choose fix widows. This option will not harm your existing files and programs. The last resort before reformatting the whole thing is to revert back to last known good boot up by performing the restore option using registry restore. It's under your Start menu.

Hiaito,

Please be kind with your words and do not express antipathy. Thank you.

Just in case you need another word to replace 'antipathy'.

It sounds to me like some components in your windows explorer is corrupted. You should goto safe mode and perform a system restore, not registry restore, from the last saved point (assuming you didn't turn off system restore).

If that doesn't work (because you don't have system restore on), try booting to safe mode and running "sfc /scannow" (no quotes). Type that into RUN from the start menu. It will check your windows install to see if files are corrupted and then ask you for the windows XP disk to fix it.

Then you can try, as the previuos poster suggests, going to the XP disk on boot up and selecting REPAIR.

Basically, if none of this works, you must re-install the OS. And you might lose some information.

Get Taskbar to load and start process = explorer.exe (found in the Windows folder) This should get your desktop to load if not try getting a virus check done, this is most likely have caused your problem. If not Re-format and re-install windows.

It is most likely a startup problem, set explorer.exe as a startup option.

It's easy fix.

If you can open CTRL+ALT+DEL. Do so.

Click Task Manager button.

File > New Task (run...)

Type: msconfig

In msconfig look at your .ini files on the tabs presented. I think on the win.ini...
You'll see a line that says
shell=
Well if something else besides explorer.exe is there, that's what happened to your desktop. Either delete the line entirely or put
shell=explorer.exe

That's one possibility though,,,

THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED IF YOU DONT WANT TO READ THE EXPLANATION

Background to come to the problem: I was recently coding a virus in Visual Basic, when I stupidly ran one, when i was just trying to see the source code. I was in luck, as I knew the basic activities it would do, so I terminated everything before it did too much damage.
When I reloaded my computer my desktop wasnt there, like all the other cases.

Solution:I checked the source code, and noticed a few things

CODE
Shl.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\NoRun", "1"
Shl.RegWrite "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer\NoDesktop", "1", "REG_DWORD"
Shl.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\NoFind", 1, "REG_DWORD"
Shl.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\DisableTaskMgr", "1"
Shl.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\DisableRegistryTools", "1", "REG_DWORD"
Shl.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\NoRun", 1, "REG_BINARY"
Shl.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\NoClose", 1, "REG_BINARY"
Shl.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\NoLogOff", 1, "REG_BINARY"
Shl.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\NoDrives", "67108863", "REG_DWORD"


To those of you who cant understand this, it is code in Visual Basic that adds new entries to your registry, screwing it up in certain situations.

Because i knew what to do, i was able to manually remove all of these, i am also supplying you guys w/ these programs that can fix them. I included one program per problem.

Downloading the wrong one, that you do not have a problem with, will not negatively affect your computer, it will just display a message stating that there is no need for it.

Problem: Windows Don't Close When I Tell Them To
Problem: The Search Button on the Start Menu is Missing
Problem: Desktop Won't Load, Taskbar Still Does Though
Problem: The Run Button on the Start Menu is Missing
Problem: I Can't Log Off
Problem: I Can't Access "regedit.exe" or there is problems with the Registry
Problem: TaskManager is Disabled (excellent for accounts without adminstrative attributes to be able to access it)

So, overall, dont download anything that might have a virus, this is probably where you got it. If you find all of these problems together, you got it from a P2P filesharing program, or someone sent it to you over AIM. I will have a website at http://VULC4N.t35.com within a day or two, so check there for more vaccines or maybe even viruses, idk.

thank you for reading this, btw Vulcan is the Roman God that is the Blacksmith of the Underworld

If you need to contact me my AIM s/n is VULC4NofHAX and my email is vulc4n.hax@gmail.com

Thanks for that, guest. But I think he don't have a virus because taskmanager is NOT disabled. Which virus won't disable that?

My suggestions:
Try reinstall the os. If it dosen't work, it's probly about your handware.

I don't know if you will read this, but you are my personal hero. I was so scared when this happened, because I am on someone elses computer. I was close to tears, thank you so much.

I don't know why but after adding a laptop to the domain at work, the machine will get his problem 1/15 times it boots (average). I believe the cause is that the computer is unable to connect to the domain for some reason, but I do have a quick fix (per boot).

Pres Ctrl+alt+del and choose Task Manager.
Click File/New Task(Run)
Type the following in the windows that appears: explorer.Exe and hit ok.

Your desktop should come up.
