settings change won't stay....

[Gordon J. Rattray]

Hi there,

I have a machine with the start menu on "classic" and I change it to "normal".

But when the machine reboots, it comes back as "classic"

How can I get it to stay as "normal"?

Thanks,

Gordon

Is this your work computer? Your IT department may have a group policy
that controls how the interface appears.

Is this your home computer? Your security software may prevent the
changes from sticking.

Hi Leonard,

It's a home computer, not on a domain.

So, there must be something in group policy or registry that makes the changes "non-effective" upon reboot...?

Thanks,

Gordon
