Hi, I am a first time poster and found your advice helpful. Thanks. I followed your advice and to my horror found that all of the options in the various lists in the "Group Policy Object Editor" window have been reset to "not configured"!!!!! How do I know which ones to configure and which ones to leave as is? I have already selected the some of the settings for Windows Update to "enabled" . What about all of the other tabs folders in that incredibly long list? Also have the same issue as Rob:
What if "Prohibit access to Control Panel" isn't present here? Mine just shows:
Regional and Language Options
User Accounts.
A program called explorer.exe controls the display of your taskbar and desktop icons. If for some reason it goes missing (you may have killed it using Task Manager, for example, or something more sinister like a virus has deleted it from your processes), then try this first:
1. Open Task Manager (press Ctrl+Alt+Del, then click Task Manager).
2. On the Applications tab, click New Task at the bottom right of the window.
3. Type explorer.exe, then click OK.
If nothing sinister caused it to disappear, it should all come back as it was and you can stop panicking, breathe a sigh of relief, and continue working.
If that doesn't work, then try this:
1. Open Task Manager (press Ctrl+Alt+Del, then click Task Manager).
2. Go to the Processes tab.
3. Click on the Image Name column header to sort the list alphabetically.
4. Find all explorer.exe processes -- select each, then click End Process for each one.
5. On the Applications tab, click New Task at the bottom right of the window.
6. Type explorer.exe, then click OK.
