Hey Len,

Good man yourself sir...............

I am guessing that C:\WINDOWS\ doesn't have the file explorer.exe in it?

Try copying the file from a working XP2 installation and installing it there.
Been there mate!

We need to get rid of the crapware then harden the machine?

Stay tuned.............. I would love to help you get rid of the little bugger, and set the minefield

By the way, in case you think that I am "condescending"........... actually I am English
