Desktop shortcuts not working


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

When I lock my computer & then unlock, the desktop shortcuts stop working

and only takes me to the shortcut properties window instead of launching the

program it's intended for. When I logoff & back on it's ok. This behavior

only happens when I lock & then unlock the computer.

 

Please assist.

 

Thanks....

I ran both REG's on line 12 (exefix.reg & linkfilerestore.reg) & then

rebooted but still have the same behavior.

 

Thanks....
