Hi all,
My Win XP pro SP2 PC has generated a problem all of a sudden. Whanever I open folder, the name does not display on taskbar. The taskbar remains blank. There is no trace of any open winow. so rather than using the mouse, I have to navigate among the windows by [alt+tab]This problem is not there for other users of the same PC. What might be wrong?
