    Windows Explorer not restarting


    Three days ago, I restarted the Windows Explorer through the Task Manager. After that, I was shocked when all of the icons on the taskbar dissapeared. Also the start menu and right clicking on the screen didn't function. Thinking that It was just a bug, I shut down my PC. The following day, I turned on the PC but after I logged in, a black screen with cursor appears but Windows Explorer is running on the Task Manager. I did many tutorials to fix this, but nothing worked. Is there any way to fix this?

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Microsoft Internet Explorer renamed to Windows Internet Explorer ?

    Since version 7 of the world`s most popular web browser - Microsoft Internet Explorer was silently renamed to Windows Internet Explorer.Such a step from Microsoft is not a surprise since Internet Explorer is part of the Windows operation system for a long time.Obviously Microsoft corp. wants to state that Internet Explorer is already considered as a part of Windows and not as an external browser (remember the IE and WMP law issues last year!?).
