Do you have an archived copy of the desktop? One of the Alt-F1 options
is to restore the desktop. If you don't have one, I suggest that you
get into the habit of periodically creating one. I'd also urge
periodic backups of the entire disk.
BTW, if you have room on disk for a BM partition and another logical
drive, I strongly recommend that you create a rescue system. I'd also
urge backups.

You'll need to check the P390 documentation. I don't know what the
P390 install looks like, but the firs place to look is \OS2\BOOK. If
you don't find it there, look for *.INF anywhere on your disk and see
if any of the names are suggestive. The command to read a book looks
like
view G:\OS2\BOOK\OS2UG.INF
Did I mention backups?
