Greetings All! I have a client who tried to run an XP Pro SP2 update on his home PC (at long last). All went well other than the fact that his desktop icons do not come up any longer upon reboot. He end up having to manually fire off the .lnk file for his settings, then all is okay. He does get an error message that says"
(In the title bar >) /idlist,:624:2744, c:\documents (In the error box >) windows could not find '/idlist,:624:2744, c:\documents t looks to me like a Registry value is trying to find a file in the "c:\documents and settings" directory, but as though it is not qualified with being nested within double-quotes, hence it is hitting the first nested <space> character in the path and crapping out there. I have yet to search his Registry, but that will be my next step. BTW, when I uninstalled SP2 the problem went away. After reinstalling SP2 it was back. Googling and looking as M$ KB yielded some results, but none I could get my teeth into. Everything else on the PC is running fine, other than the fact I think he ought to replace XP with Ubuntu (I have become an extremist! Aaaaggghhh!!!) Thanks! Gil Gilbert M.
