icons would not reappear if the frequently modified files list was set to be erased
everytime you exit or logoff Windows..
if this is the case, we may need to modify the registry tweak file we created previously
to try remedying this..
follow again the steps i had provided before but the contents of the tweak file should
be..
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoStartMenuMFUprogramsList"=dword:00000000
"ClearRecentDocsOnExit"=dword:00000000
"NoRecentDocsHistory"=dword:00000000
"NoRecentDocsMenu"=dword:00000000
"MaxRecentDocs"=dword:0000000a
the tweak above is for a system-wide setting, such that all user accounts, current
and new, must follow this same setting..
if you want it exclusively for your own account profile, just replace the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE"
phrase on line 2 with "HKEY_CURRENT_USER"...
for a system-wide setting, you may need to reboot the PC to effect the change..
a
user-wide setting however, a simple logoff would suffice..
try it, and again this should solve the problem, only if a virus or worm is not blocking
the change or if you did not install a system or registry protection software to
ignore or block the changes..
