Desktop icons playing up
After using IE 32 bit I am unable to open programs using the desktop icons. I can use the taskbar items and the start menu. Also nothing happens when I right click on the desktop area. I have scanned the pc with AVG and search and destroy but they returned nothing. This only happens after using IE 32 bit and not after using IE 64 bit. Other account users dont have this problem. Hope someone can help. Thanks.

Hi Old Geezer and welcome
Im a bit confused. Are you using Internet Explorer (7 or 8), 32bit, on a 64bit system? If you have a 64 bit system then you should resume using IE 64bit. I dont see how using a particular version of IE could affect your ability to open your programs etc though Maybe I have misunderstood, in which case lets hope someone with more knowledge than me pops along In the mean time, why not ditch IE (temporarily if you like) and download Google Chrome or Firefox and see how you get on with them |
