Pardon if this is a repeat question. I think I may have seen it in
the past, but THEN it was not my problem.

When I try to open the add/remove programs task, there's some
disk activity for a while, but nothing opens. I'm not logging on any
differently than ever before, so I should have permission if that's an
issue. ANy ideas where to look?

TIA
Jim

Well, it turns out after a restart the task window opened.
Not sure what the problem was before the restart.
