hi,
I followed all the details given (I too got sheriff spy). But now my Windows XP is stuck in classic view, it runs ok, but it doesn't look at all like it did, eg. the bar at the top looks like win 95, theres no little pic at the top right hand corner of my start task bar, lots of the colour is missing (its a pure white background in control bar for another example).
How can I get Xp back to full colour again?
thanks.
after removing everything as above, try creating yourself as a new user, then transfer all your docs,etc from the old user to the new user, as the spy sheriff only locks up the desktop of the user who was logged in.
