Isn't it strange...!

.....Every now and again you accidentally click something in your Windows operating system and everything goes completely pear-shaped... :o...!
I have just spent the past 4 hours getting all my original programs, etc, back again, displaying all the files and folders, in fact EVERYTHING, exactly as it was before I clicked in this bleedin' unknown Windows box...  >:(...!
LOL...!

It's all retrieved now, but it was a worry at the time because I thought I had lost absolutely EVERYTHING...nothing displayed correctly...:'(...!

Phew.... ::)...!
...beware of clicking your mouse pointer where you shouldn't do...LOL...!

Paul...back in Classic Mode...and having a lay down... ;)...!

Note: System restore didn't work because I hadn't set up a System Restore Date previously... ;)...!

Happens to me all the time.  Sometimes you (I) spazz out with a burst of energy, and then you (I) can't tell what's happened!

Whilst I was on vacation, it took me two days to get explorer back to normal.  Turns out windows goes scewy if you hold down shift and enter to open a folder.

And don't even get me started about font sizes in browsers! :-[ ::)
