Remove its CLSID from the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID. On my system it's named 20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D. Better to export that key first before deleting it, so that it's possible to restore if it doesn't work as intended.

Ok, but how would you enable it. My Computer on my desktop isn't working, so i need to know how to enable it.
Also, my recycle bin doesn't open, any suggestions. Registry editing is what i am looking for, so any tips would be greatly appreciated. |

As LLXX said, you should open regedit, then (very important) export the regkey, then remove only that regkey.
You can export it by selecting the key (with a folder icon), then go to menu File and choose Export Registry File. If you want to enable the My Computer icon back later, you should import that regkey again into your registry by doubleclicking the file. |

Can you tell me all the strings, and values of the strings that are supposed to be in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID {20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}. Because i think i might be missing a few of the strings, or the values have been tweaked. Thanks.

My HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
is exactly the same as yours, but my computer doesn't open, either does recycle bin. Is there _anything_ else that i could do? This post has been edited by bms: Feb 6 2006, 08:32 PM |
