Sun

right click on MY COMPUTER, select PROPERTIES, and then click on the SYSTEM RESTORE tab on the left side at top.
That should do it.

SOunds like the explorer.exe file was not fully engaged and that apparently going to safe mode, restarting might have helped that file. That controls tose desktop icons and everything else you see there at startup.

I am glad you at least got it back!

Micro,

I don't think you're totally understanding what the problem is/was.

Once Hollywood would start up and get to the desktop background, at that point I had nothing. No icons, no task bar, no start, no start menu, nothing what-so-ever but the desktop background.

Now - having said that - I did get her to start in safe mode yesterday, but had the same situation there. Looking at production, I suspected that in safe mode, F@H wasn't operating, so thought I would start her up normal and at least she could fold until I got time to actually work on her. So - low and behold, this morning I have icons back and she seems to be "normal". I'm currently running a virus scan. I'm also thinking I need to do a restore - but can't remember how to do that - but at least I'm in a better place with her to be able to go forward!

Where do I find being able to start a restore once the virus scan finishes?

Sun :-)
