I have Windows 7 on my laptop. I installed the Desktop package that Google offers. I tried to use Picasa for my pictures. When I uninstalled the programs, my desktop turned dark and the icons for my pictures and videos are gone. The names are still there and when i put my cursor over the names the highlights it with the bubble but no picture comes up. I think im missing a few file extentions but if i am i don't know what to look for
I wouldnt normally suggest this as its a long shot but nobody has replied.
this program is built for xp but repairs alot of things like this. there is an option to rebuild desktop icons and so on its called TWEAK UI
could try it doubt it would work with Win 7.
Another thing to try download IE8 as a a standalone file from microsoft.
uninstall all IE8 components reboot then run the standalone file. sounds strange but i have found this fixes alot of icon problems as IE is tied closly with windows
Hu? did i do that? 16Mb (EDO RAM), K6-II processor, 2Mb of onboard graphics. 32k dial up modem. 12 speed CD ROM. 5¼-inch floppy drive. 500Mb HDD.
I found out what happened. Microsoft is going to start shutting down the Window 7 RC. Somehow, they turned off the background, so the icons and the background will not show up.
It has always been made clear by MS that the RC is time bombed. The "some how" is easy. It runs off the date. I guess they are using this as a way of warning you that it is getting close to the end of when you can use the RC so that you have time to buy the full product.
