I can not get my icons or folders to open on my desktop. I
also can not get my coputer to open from the start menu.

Thanks

Line 195 (right column) "Restore Desktop Icons and Taskbar"

Install the fix, then reboot your computer.

If this is a recent issue, you might try using System Restore to take you
back to a time prior to when this began. Start\All
Programs\Accessories\System Tools\System Restore.

If you are unable to access it from your start menu, try accessing it
through Safe Mode. Boot your system, start tapping F8, select Safe Mode and
press enter.
