Windows Explorer won't work.
Posted: 11-12-2007, 09:31 AM
was my first problem). One of the videos did not finish downloading but it
left an icon on my desktop and whenever i try to delete it it will not
delete. It acts like it will delete but it wont. Even in safe mode. If I
select "properties" it says that it is 0KB in size. I downloaded a few
videos and they all worked and even downloaded this one again again and on
the second time it worked. So this is not the big deal, I just have an icon
on my desktop that i cannot get rid of. Well the next day I try to open my
c: drive and nothing. A window pops up like it is going to open and nothing
happens. The window just says Windows Explorer and it is empty. I can use
Internet Explorer and can use Mozilla and Windows Live Messenger. I cannot
however access anything that i have to go through Windows Explorer to use. I
was worried that my hard drives were dead, but if i use Internet Explorer or
Mozilla to access the drives, to send something as an attachment I can see
all my files right where they are supposed to be. I tried to use several
restore points and they didn't correct the problem. I had windows check the
registry and nothing, no problems. I used Symantec to scan the computer and
no problems. So now i have no idea what to do.
To make it even better, I am currently in the People's Republic of China so
Vista is hard to come by and even harder to find someone who has even used it
before. I have had 2 guys from the Chinese version of GEEKSQUAD have a go at
it and they did absolutely nothing. Nothing even works in safe mode. If
someone has a solution HELP!
