SYMPTOMS
When you click Start, point to Programs, and then click Windows Explorer or Windows NT Explorer, you may receive the following prompt:
CAUSE
This behavior can occur if you remove the Windows Desktop Update component and click No when you are prompted to remove the personalized settings for Windows Explorer.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this behavior, change the shortcut to Windows Explorer or Windows NT Explorer so that it points to the Explorer.exe file. To do so, follow these steps:
- Right-click Start, and then click Open.
- Double-click Programs.
- Right-click Windows Explorer or Windows NT Explorer, click Properties, and then click the Shortcut tab.
- In the Target box, rename explorer.scf to explorer.exe (without quotation marks), and then click OK.
STATUS
MORE INFORMATION
The option to remove personalized settings for Windows Explorer is intended for people who use roaming profiles. If you remove the Windows Desktop Update component and click No when you are prompted to remove your personalized settings, the Windows Explorer or Windows NT Explorer shortcut still points to the Explorer.scf file even though it has been removed from your hard disk.
