Desktop Icons Disappearing??

<< < (2/2)

shibumi:
Hi Shane, I created a new user account and the icons load with the new account so my profile must have been corrupted, this all happened after I downloaded a critical windows update, I could have used system restore but felt that the update was more important what do you think?
Anyway things should be fine now I just have to copy my files to the new account. In the link above that you sent me it says to:
Select all of the files and folders in this folder, except the following files: Ntuser.dat - Ntuser.dat.log - Ntuser.ini
But I only have Ntuser.dat and not the other two could this have been the problem? Thanks for all your help and your software programs.

Shane:
Ntuser.dat is the reg for the current user. Thats why you cant transfer it.

I am not sure what it is in the profile causing the icon problem, perhaps it was int he registry for the profile?
