RE: Desktop icons not responding

[Correa, Andre]

I have seen this before.   It was because the permissions for the Profiles directory were really weird, and only the administrator can do anything on the desktop.  Compare the permissions against a working NT workstation, and see if they’re identical.  If not, make the necessary changes to the problem workstation.   HTH,   Andre Correa     -----Original Message----- From: Lefkovics, William [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2001 4:11 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Desktop icons not responding   Then reapply latest sp.   Then come back.     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2001 12:43 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Desktop icons not responding how about just rebooting?  -----Original Message----- From: Steve More [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2001 12:38 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Desktop icons not responding Check to see if Explorer.exe is running, if not someone is playing with you. -----Original Message----- From: Myung Bang [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2001 12:36 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Desktop icons not responding Well, I can not delete any icons on the desktop. Delete key doesn't work. I brought up the Display Properties and only odd thing I can see is, Background Pattern is empty and Edit Pattern button is gray out. All other seems ok. Maybe this Background Pattern has something to do with my problem.
