I have tried to restore to different points but the
desktop and taskbar only appear when the computer is
closing down. I am running the computer with the task
manager and do not know where to access desktop settings
through the c:\ directory system. I can run all programs
I can find that open in their own windows, cannot run
windows explorer.

I have been encountering the same problem. Do you receive
a pop up that says Project 1 It's Time?

That works but upon reboot the same thing happens again.
Any suggestions?

Hi James,

Within the Task Manager, end the process on explorer.exe. Leave the Task
Manager open, then go to File/New Task and type in:
explorer.exe

Note: To get to the Control Panel for Display properties, type in Control.

Restore the Desktop and Taskbar:
