  • The desktop icons to stop after I leave internet. Can use the start menu

    After reboot, all the features of the icon on the desktop.  Inbound and outbound to the internet, I get no response.  The start menu, takes me on the desktop and everything works from here

    Hello

    Did you the latest changes on the computer before this problem?

    Method 1:

    I suggest to start the computer in Mode safe mode with network and check if the problem occurs. If the problem does not occur in Mode safe mode with networking and then you try to perform the clean boot to find what startup item or service is causing the problem.

    Step 1: To restart in Mode safe mode with networking enabled:
    (a) reboot your computer.
    (b) when you see the logo of the manufacturer of the computer, press on and hold the F8 key.
    (c) on the screen Advanced Startup Options , use the arrow keys to Select Safe Mode with networkand press enter.
    account d) log your computer with a user who has of administrator rights.

    Reference: http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

    If the problem does not occur in safe mode with network you try to perform the clean boot.

    Step 2: Perform the clean boot.

    By setting your boot system minimum state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow step 7 in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.

    Method 2:

    If the problem persists, try the procedure described and check if that helps.

    Step 1: Rebuild the icon Cache

     
    a. open the Folder Options to select (round), display the hidden files and folders.
    b. open a Windows Explorer window.
    c. go to C:\Users\(User Name) \AppData\Local
    d. right-click on IconCache.db and click Remove.
    e. click Yes to confirm the deletion.
    NOTE: This removes the file to the trash. It is safe to empty the trash when you are done.
    f. close the window.
    g. empty the Recycle Bin.
    h. restart the computer.
    i. When you come back, you will notice the size of the file IconCache.db is reduced, and the update is now the current date.
    NOTE: If for some reason any IconCache.db isn't there or the size has not changed much, then just restart the computer again. You may need to restart a few times in some cases.
    j. the icon cache has been rebuilt.
    k. open Folder Options for select (round) show not the hidden files and folders.
     Step 2: Reset the icon Cache
    a. right click on an empty area of the Office and click on Personalize.
    b. click the link display properties.
    c. under colors, select medium (16 bit) and click apply.
    NOTE: If you already have a medium (16 bit) selected, then select the highest (32-bit) instead. Sometimes, you will have to do a reboot first, then go to step 4. Try both ways.
    d. click on Yes to confirm the new setting.

    e. now, Select the highest (32 bit) and click OK.
    NOTE: If you already have the highest (32 bit) selected, then select medium (16 bit).
    f. click on Yes to confirm the new setting.

    Check Event Viewer for all related logs that could help us solve the problem.

  • The desktop icons do not respond after the use of IE

    Hello

    Anyone got a solution for this? When the computer is turned on I can use the icons on the desktop, no problem. However, after I used Internet Explorer from the desktop icons don't respond well the pograms can be opened from the start menu. As the recent problem I tried uninstalling some updates recently installed, without solving the problem. Using Windows Vista and IE9

    After that I used Internet Explorer from the desktop icons do not respond

    Does that mean exactly?   For example, what do you see?   For the best answer to this question, you could use ProcMon and know what modules are involved when you do what these are.   ;  )

    However, without using ProcMon you can check with the Manager task or resource or ProcExp monitor if there is always a hidden background iexplore.exe processes running or anything related to IE which started as a result of your using IE.   If so then try to kill these processes.   Etc.

    Related to this, you could also consider what you used IE before your symptoms occurred.   This means that would understand that make your "desktop icons" and change it to something more neutral.   For example, if you had clicked on was a shortcut Internet (aka the .url file) that requires a network connection, change for people who only runs locally, such as about: blank.   So if you could close the window that has opened and always use the shortcut you would have refined your description of symptom to involve the network connections.

    Related to that, would be your security package, for example, some are trying to act as a hidden proxy to "analyze" the HTTP traffic.   Then the problem would not be IE but the hidden proxy.  Etc.

    You can't wait for a "fix" until you have a fully understood symptom.   More details and diagnosis is necessary IMO.
