If your Desktop and Start menu shortcuts don't run:

You should ALWAYS backup your registry before making any changes

1. Copy / Paste the following data to a Exe.reg file. (use note pad)

2. Merge the Exe.reg file with your registry, or run regedit.exe /s Exe.reg.

3. Restart your computer.

NOTE: If REGEDIT.EXE won't run, copy it to REGEDIT.COM and run REGEDIT.COM
instead of REGEDIT.EXE

Good luck

you checked to see if the registry editor is working? (start>run> type
"regedit" >click ok) ... email me off list and I can attach the reg file
