my file icons have all become little black boxes. How do I change back to classic icons?
I was using just my computer as always this morning. Using Vista on a HP computer I've owned for nearly three years. Never had a problem like this before.
All of a sudden all my folders on the desktop and in the windows file has appeared as black squares. I restarted my computer and the black squares are still there.
I went to tools in the menu bar and tried to change the appearance of the icons file but cannot change.
I clicked on the classic files and tried to apply it to all files without success.
Help, please.

I had a computer crash and made a new installation of Win7 and restoring all files to Carbonite. I managed to get 5 LR running in LR. However, I don't know that I have all my previous catalogs. How can I find my catalogs to make sure I have a complete inventory of all my catalogs.
If you have downloaded all the files Carbonite, then the question is, are your catalog never included in the Carbonite backup in the first place?
If so, then all you have to do is look for *. LRCAT file.

Whenever I turn on my computer for a week, I try and put my password and after the first or the second key it stalls. He again entered my password, but I don't see whether registration in the password box. I also have a little black box that is slightly smaller than the size of a post-it note in the top left area of my screen for half a second, then it disappears and continues to my home screen and office as usual.
I had this problem for about a week, and I can't understand what is the problem. I googled some things, but no one had the right answer. Someone said it was a startup with a defective software program, but I checked and I have the same 4 startup programs I've had there for a year. (DELL Wiireless WLAN Card, IDT PC Audio, Synaptics Pointing Device Driver and NVIDIA Compatible Windows 7 display driver) Everything is up-to-date and I already have Windows Update.
* A video that I captured from my computer of this problem: http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=GViQv-Xrm0U
(password stops around 0:42 and black appears at 0:52)
Someone help? I'm paranoid that it might be a Spyware... ? None of my passwords and others are corrupted though, everything has been fine. I am making bluescreens (but not daily). I scanned with Malewarebytes and found nothing and I do that again right now. I also tried Registry Mechanic and Windows Security Essentials, but found nothing.
I have no idea what Forum put it, this is my first time using this site...

LNK is not a problem in itself. It is simply a shortcut file. For example, you have a lot of shortcuts on your desktop, open your Media Player or web browser.
