Did I turn off my desktop? - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

PC is working fine... I was fiddling around earlier and removing some unwanted programs. Don't know if this has anything to do with it but none of my desktop icons will work now...

Did I turn off my desktop somehow? What do I do?

1. Have you rebooted?
2. What did you remove?
3. Define "will not work"? What does happen? Error message? Lockup? Nothing?
4. Does anything work? Start Menu? Right clicking on empty space or on an icon?

Everything works from the start menu but nothing happens at all when I click desktop icons. I just removed a couple of games I bought on pogo

Do you know how to run system restore? Try restoring from a point before you removed your games.

Ok i restored. The only things I had done were remove two games and install two Windows updates... wonder what did it?
