    Winodows Explorer appears when booted


    Whenever I boot my Win 7 computer, nothing shows on the desktop except for Win 7 screen. Recently, Windows Explorer appears on the desktop whenever I boot the computer. Is there anyway to suppress opening of the windows explore during booting. Hummer

    Hello,

    Check this article SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker and see if that fixes it if not then run a Startup Repair : Startup Repair

    Hope this helps,

    If none of that works try going into
    HKey_Local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\explorer\policies\run

    and see if there is any spyware in there.

    That's what I found using Google and TomsHardware
