Windows XP shell problems.?

A few days ago I installed an entire shell replacement for my Windows XP installation. However the shell replacement was a little quirky, for example accessing a folder's properties by right clicking on in caused a send error report to come up in it's place. However, before installing the shell replacement I took some precautionary measures. First of all I made a system restore checkpoint and secondly I backed up all my critical data. I have uninstalled the shell replacement but the quirky behavior still persists. I have rolled back to the system restore checkpoint, but to no avail. I am thinking about repairing my Windows XP shell by using the 'repair existing installation' function in the Windows XP CD. Will doing so damage program settings such as uTorrent and Outlook?

  1. Reformatting the pc will get rid of everything. It will take the computer back to factory settings.

    PC Recovery, I'm thinking it was you need to do. It'll just fix whatever the problem is. But I highly recommend that you bach up all those files if you can.


  2. it is better to do what you thought last ..repair instalation. it won't remove or delete any of your programs. only the XP file are dealt with when doing this....
