    Control panel problem


    Hey guys,

    Since a pretty long while my control panel does not show all the icons it has to show.
    I already found some info about regedit.exe but it sais it can't delete the files in the don't load folder.
    Is it possible to get the icons back without re-installing windows?

    PC specs:
    Windows 7 64 bit
    i5 processor
    8 gigs RAM

    Antivirus solution:
    Bitdefender 2013
