Missing start menu and taskbar + windows button shortcuts is disab

Hi there..

I've found he start menu and taskbar disappear when I'm logging in.
I can use mouse & keyboard normally, but I have to use ctrl+alt+del ONLY to
show task manager then browse and open the programs/files.

It has no problem with all applications except windows button's shortcuts
are disable (eg. windows+E, windows+R, windows+D, etc) and I'm unable to use
desktop properties with all the way I knew.

It happened all the times when log in into windows. It was happened first
after I made a mistake deleting some strings in the registry editor/regedit.
The worst things are no registry backup and I the forgot the specific
string.. God!

Is anyone know how to recover/rebuild the string or create new string
whatever, or any other way just to show the start menu, taskbar and re-active
the windows button without re-install the XP?
