Hi @Tihiy. Or anyone else who can help!
I have a problem - sorry! I downloaded o-n-e when I was using windows 10. I got so fed up with windows 10 that I chucked it away. I have just managed to get my laptop back to Win7 after weeks of work. I happened to notice the link for o-n-e on the desktop and installed it - I remember that I ticked the first checkbox only, but I don't remember what it was called ... But then windows explorer crashed, and I can't get it back. I know I shouldn't have used it on win7....now!
I had a command prompt open, but when I tried to call up the desktop link to o-n-e the cmd window crashed. I've tried getting into another user, and that didn't work - explorer won't start in the administrator user (my user has admin privileges). I have tried bringing up task manager and selecting File/Run, but regardless of what I try to run, that crashes task manager every time. I have no windows open now - just the desktop, with no icons.
I looked in task manager and couldn't find it in processes or in services.
If I shut down the laptop and bring it up in safe mode, will the explorer work? I am familiar with regedit - can I uninstall the program from there? (Does o-n-e work through registry settings? If so, which?)
I really don't want to go back to Last Known Good, as I've done a lot of significant changes since then.
One other idea, I could get into a cmd window by booting from the win7 recovery CD, but it doesn't allow you to do very much once you're there; but maybe renaming a file, or deleting a file, might solve my problem - but I need your advice on this please.
Please help! Sorry for my mistake.
(P.S. The reason I was trying to install it in the first place was that I really dislike what Microsfot have done with the file explorer in Win7. They had it just right in XP, and then they messed it up. ... By the way, I have just found out that there is a freeware version of Windows 3.0 File Manager available now - which runs separately from Explorer, of course, on recent Windows versions, so I shall use that in future, the next best thing to the XP version.
Can I suggest that you insert a check, to stop anyone trying to install o-n-e in versions of Windows that are incompatible? Thanks.)
