How to Solve Restore Active Desktop Issue????
December 23, 2008 · Filed Under Tutorials
If you happen to switch off your machine unexpectedly (due to power failure or forced shut down) then you’ll get a white screen with a button to restore. Most of the time using this button you can restore your active desktop, but sometimes it’ll never work and you’ll have to have that white ugly screen all the time.
By doing a edit in registry you can recover your Desk-top. Steps are as follows
Active Desktop Issue
- start -> run -> regedit
- Now Registry window will open
- Choose folders as in this order HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\SafeMode\Components
- Open HTML Version
- edit the html version to 0 (Value Data)
- Now refresh your desk-top
Here we go! You’ll no longer have that annoying ugly button “Restore my Active Desktop”
