Active Desktop cannot be restored on Win XP
- by Phil.Wheeler
This is more of a major annoyance than anything that's stopping me from doing my work, but I somehow seem to have had Active Desktop on my work XP machine get corrupted and now can't get it back working again.
I've tried browsing to C:\Documents and Settings\%my-user-name%\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer and changing, deleting or replacing the Desktop.htt file, but it's not achieving anything.
The error I was previously getting when trying to click the "Restore my active desktop" button was:
Internet Explorer Script Error
An error has occurred in the script on
this page.
Line: 65 Char: 1 Error: Object doesn't
support this action Code: 0 URL:
file://C:/Documents%20and%20Settings//Application
%20Data/Microsoft/Internet%20Explorer/Desktop.htt
Any ideas?
