Recommended Posts

 

 

Hey everyone....

 

i got a pretty bad problem, at least i think it is....

 

all of a sudden NONE, of my shortcuts work...for games or programs....i have run malwarebytes to see if i was being hit with something but it found nothing....

 

when ever i try to run something i get this screen......

 

can anyone tell me what has happened?? as im at a total loss here... :wallbash:

Unfortunately that fix is for XP and didnt work for me...Yet..

 

my friend came over and we did some research and we came up with this....If ANYONE ever has this problem this is what you do...

 

Open up notepad (might have to right click and open as administrator) and copy/paste this into it
