no taskbar (start button) after login

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.general (More info?)

Hello


when I log in to my system I don't get my task bar anymore.

I tried to log in as my own user or as administrator. I booted in "safe
mode" but I have the same problem.


Detailed description:

Windows 2000 starts up, I get the black screen, after that the white
screen and after that I am able to log in.

I log in, I can hear the hard disk is working, but I don't get my
taskbar as I'm used to. I can press Ctrl-Alt-Del and choose Task
Manager. In the Task Manager I'm able to run every program using "Run"
in the menu. I can run Office, Explorer, IExplorer, .... but I don't
get a task bar.

Any sugestions?


thx!

Check that explorer.exe is the default shell to start. Look at the Reg_Sz
string value of;
"Shell"="Explorer.exe"
found at
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

The profile may also be corrupt so try creating a new account and logging on
with that or these may help you.
