System Restore
I recently installed Drive Cleaner 2006 free on my laptop. Ever since i have
done so, when the computer boots up, none of my icons appear on my desktop and neither does the start up bar. I have to go through tasks and type in the program name I want to run. I have tried to do a system restore, and it still isn't working. Any suggestions?

Repair Install http://www.michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm You might also want to contact Drive Cleaner's tech support. Perhaps this is a known issue.

System Restore
Does "drive cleaner" have any automatic backup options? Many programs that delete files or settings have an option to "undo" any changes that have been made.
Always 'BEWARE' of any program that promises to "automatically" optimize the system. -- Ronnie Vernon Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User "kts1964" wrote in message ...
