  1. Desktop keeps closing and reopening


    Yesterday morning when I turned my HP Envy I don't have the model number

    on it froze up booting up. I turned it off at the surge protector and turned it back on. It booted up a little slower than usual, but brought the sign in screen up. I signed in and the desktop came up. But, it and the taskbar keep closing and reopening. I ran a Norton full system scan, it found no viruses. I looked at my scan history. Shortly after a LiveUpdate it shows the user logged out I did not sign out. I read n a Norton Forums post about this happening. That poster had a "'desktop.ini"'file on their desktop after a random live update session." After this he started experiencing the desktop closing/restarting issue. Unfortunately, when I try to reply on the post I get a system error. There is not a "desktop.ini" file on my desktop. I opened the file explorer window to search for it, but, it closed out immediately. The same happened with a shortcut to a search window. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    :)

    Desktop keeps closing and reopening

    Windows explorer keeps reopening?


    After I experienced crash, which was caused I thing due to bad RAM which I replaced then,
    I couldn't repair windows to the state it was.
    I have problems with windows explorer,
    it reopens, almost every time I open WE and then closed it, it reopens again to the same folder.

    For example if I click in utorrent 'open containing folder' it will open it and then refresh it to the begining of the file list. When I close the window, it will reopen again.

    Also, I cant force WE to remember settings for each folder, (like I used to before crash). In all folders, files are listed as 'date modified' if I try to change to different settings it will not remember, even if I click back and return to folder, it already change to default 'date modified'.

    Another thing, icons on desktop are largest, I can decrease the size of icons, but they resset to largest every time I reboot.

    I tried SFC /SCANNOW, doesnt find any errors.
    Also scanned with kaspersky boot CD, no problems found.

    I was thinking to recover some files from old backup, and to replace existing files, but which files should I recover?

    What would be the registry keys that I should look for in order to fix this?
