August 29, 200619 yr The Explorer.exe is not initiated with the Windows, already I verifiedkey "SHELL" in the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon, but the problem continues.
August 29, 200619 yr what OS, what SP?did you apply all updates? Did you create a cd with nLite? if yes, post your lastsession.ini.what did you see on startup?
August 30, 200619 yr Author I am using Windows XP Pro SP2. I am with all updates in day. I did not use the nLite to make the installation. The Windows simply does not show no information when initiating, for example: it does not load theicons and bar of tasks.
August 30, 200619 yr Open Task Manager or Run and run explorer.exe from there and see if it will start.Create a new account and see what happens.
August 30, 200619 yr Author I typed Explorer.exe in the Task Manager and is initiated,already I created a new user and exactly thus it does not function.
September 2, 200619 yr The Explorer.exe is not initiated with the Windows, already I verifiedkey "SHELL" in the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon, but the problem continues.Looking at this key alone is not sufficient to determine if everything is OK. You need to look at a full startup list to see if there's anything else.If creating another acc doesn't solve it then it's a problem not specific to the user.So either do it the hard way (finding the culprit) or the easy way (repair/sfc/reinstall).
September 2, 200619 yr Yes : in HKCU not HKLM...Shell is session-dependant; it is not set for all accounts.
September 6, 200619 yr I am also experiencing this problem. Windows XP PRO SP 2did not use nlitewhen logging in, all i get is wallpaper. no icons, no taskbar. and it seems to be intermittent. if i bring up task manager and end the explorer process, then rerun it, then the taskbar and icons appear. I'd like to avoid reinstalling/repairing windows. If anyone has anymore suggestions, please post them!
