Desktop does not load after login Options

[Victor]

I've check event viewer, but it does not show out any error msg. Then I try
to create another user account as admin. Yet the result still the same. After
the User login, desktop does not load, showing blank windows. No right click
mouse function. But Ctr+ALT+Del still can work with Task Manager.

Pls Help. I really need an advise here.

hello Victor

I had the same problem with my vista OS , Windows desktop would not
load up after login:confused:, I restarted my computer over and over
again trying to get it to load up, After about 50 tries I stopped and
thought what if it is a conflict or something , I then restarted
windows in safe mode and looked at all my programs closely , In my add
and remove programs I notice that I installed a second fire wall called
comodo fire wall , I cant remember why I installed it:p maybe for extra
security or somethin or cause I was getting a system32 trojan dropper at
the time I think:rolleyes: , I decided to uninstall it and restart ,
after restarting and interring my password to my user account windows
desktop popped up , So it was a conflict hmmm! my fire walls were not
getting along , So if i were you I would load up safe mode and see if
theres Any programs that you have installed that might be conflicting in
your system an stopping windows from loading to desktop:cool:, I hope my
suggestion helps you out Victor take care and good luck^^

Victor, I imagine you have probably performed a reinstall by now. Hopefully this will help somebody else. I'm am having the same issue. What I have done as a work around is to ctl-alt-dlt to get into task manager then goto File>New Task> and start explorer.exe from there. Vista shows the desktop and loads all of my startup and everything works great.

Sarafee, I'm not 100% that it is the firewall doing this, I'm using AVG9 IS and have disabled Vista, tried it the opposite way and have disabled both and seem to have the same symptoms. I'll let you know what I;ve come up with.

Are you sure ? Its AVG9

Go here download and run this script:

This script will add the explore.exe back to the shell, Vista.

My apologies, a typo. It is AVG 8.

Paul, thanks for the script that seems to have fixed my problem.

You are welcome.
