The Workstation Service is not present in 'Services' on my computer and I cannot browse or make any outgoing network connections (The Server Service is OK and incoming connections work fine). The svchost.exe file is present, how can I add this service back in?
Thanks
Andrew
Merge this reg file and restart.
