Please help...can't get help and support to open and msconfig

[Guest]

Have been unable to get help and support open in my xp home edition...in
trying to9 get it working I have followed directions and gone into
services.msc and set the help and support to automatic/start pressed apply
and ok....still can't get it open..tried typing in run/msconfig but that is
also not available and I am not sure what to do anymore....I have tried to
open these things in safe mode also and they don't work there either. I am
not sure when they stopped working., or why they stopped working, have also
done ccleaner, spybot, virus scan and nothing comes up. Please I need some
help

Had the same problem. This registry patch file (probably from
Kelly's-Korner) fixed it. Apparently Help and Support is so tender than
Toni-Arts EZ Cleaner will break it.

You would be wise to stop using such "cleaners", as in the hands of the
novice they do more harm than good.
