Registry problem

[Unwonted]

Hi! I'm stupid.

I accidentally deleted HKCR\.LNK for Windows XP. Could someone post this key in its entirety? Thanks

System Restore should put it back for you........

I haven't made a restore point in a LOOOONG time, so I don't want to go back. Does anyone have the reg key?

You can do it like this:

Start-->Run-->Type "regedit" (without the quotes)-->Expand the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT folder, right click ".LNK", export it, edit the resulting .reg file in notepad, copy and paste it all the text here Thanks!

Hey HandyBuddy here is the code u requested

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.lnk]
@="lnkfile"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.lnk\ShellEx]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.lnk\ShellEx\{000214EE-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}]
@="{00021401-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.lnk\ShellEx\{000214F9-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}]
@="{00021401-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.lnk\ShellEx\{00021500-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}]
@="{00021401-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.lnk\ShellEx\{BB2E617C-0920-11d1-9A0B-00C04FC2D6C1}]
@="{00021401-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.lnk\ShellNew]
"Command"="rundll32.exe appwiz.cpl,NewLinkHere %1"

Just create the REG file and merge it..
