Hi,
No obvious damage. Try this: Control Panel/Folder Options/View tab, uncheck
the line "restore previous folder windows at logon". Click apply/ok, do not
reboot yet.
Start/run msconfig, on the general tab select the diagnostic mode. Click
apply/ok and reboot at prompted.
The folder should not show up now. Rerun msconfig, put the system back in
normal mode. Click apply/ok and reboot once more. Does this help?
For many users, this will resolve the issue. For some that still have
registry damage it will not. If this is the case, run msconfig once again
and use selective startup. Go to the startup tab and uncheck half the
entries. Click apply/ok and reboot. Does it still occur? If so, the problem
is in one of the remaining checked items and you should repeat the procedure
by unchecking half of the remaining ones. If not, then recheck half of those
you unchecked.
Use the above steps to isolate which entry is causing the problem. Then post
back with that information.
