This occasionally happens. Do the following:



1. Press Ctrl-Alt-Delete.

2. If you see a button that says 'Run...' click that and goto step 5.

3. Click 'Task Manager'

4. Click 'File' then 'New Task (Run..)'

5. Type "explorer.exe" without the quotes and hit enter.



That should complete your boot-up process.



Good luck.

Windows explorer has not started up (it probably failed or something). Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete, if Windows Security pops up, press 'Task Manager'. If not, Windows Task manager opens and it does also after pressing 'Task Manager'. Press 'New Task...' and type exactly: 'explorer.exe' and press 'OK'. If it explorers your My Documents folder, hold your power button in until your PC turns off, then retry. If it works how it should, the taskbar will show and your icons along with it.

Unbeknownst to me, i substitute into now gazing my Secondary demonstrate. My different video demonstrate (my television) is in many situations became off, so it wasn t in any respect glaring what substitute into occurring! interior the demonstrate selection window I made the different video demonstrate my substantial video demonstrate and then activity bar, initiate button, icons, etc. decrease back.
