I have trying to lockdown our store user profile in
regedit. Everything has been going real good, but I now find that if they (or administrator)try to open the Recycle Bin on the desktop they get a shortcut placed on the desktop. If they try to open Printers and Faxes on the menu users get a "Windows canot create a shortcut here. Do you want the shortcut to be placed on the desktop instead?" popup window. I have looked all over the Internet and can't seem to find the solution. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks. |

Doug,
Your application on your website looks real nice, but I have looked thru the help menu and cannot find anything pertaining to my problem. Am I missing it?

Tom,
Check in the Win XP Fixes section, Restore Recycle Bin Desktop Icon. = While the primary purpose is to put the icon back, the REG file also = contains a large number of other Registry entries associated with the = Recycle Bin. =20 And my apologies for the confusion.
