re: Why? Friday, December 27, 2002 at 12:42 am Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Ms. Eagle (32532 messages posted) The article is referring to 2K and XP. I assume she linked to the article, because she's experiencing the problem of "no desktop icons or taskbar", which means no desktop. Therefore, she has no start button or access to any applications or files. In that case, she needs to extract a new copy of Explorer.exe. I don't know the DOS command to extract it directly from DOS. This is a round about way to do it, but it'll work. If this isn't the case, she can post a real message. Written in response to: Why?
