Windows start menu,Task bar and desktop icons disappear

[ev0l]

Okay well I've been to 2 forums already neither of them has decided to post anything helping me so im moving on. Because i don't know if the longer i wait the worse it gets so I need help like as fast as possible. every now and then my desktop icons will disappear same with my task bar and start menu. The task manager is the only way to use programs when this happens i have to restart to get everything back sometimes it takes several restart.

I've done a little research and from what i've seen it has to do with explorer.exe everyone said. so I opened event viewer and waited once it happend it logged the problems which i will be below, Explorer.exe dissapears when the problem happens but before the problem its quietly waiting in my task manager.

so im not to sure what to do. Here is the logs of the events it recorder in errors. It happend once and i had to restart then it did it again but everything came back thats why the errors show up twice.

Take not that the ones bolded are the ones that happend at the same time which is believe to be the main issued ones.

Welcome to the Windows Forum.

The first thing we will need to check is if your system is clean of malware.

• Do you have an active firewall?
  
• Do you have an up-to-date antivirus software installed?
  
• Do you have any anti-spyware applications?
  

Even if you reply "yes" to all of above, we have to make sure that your system is not infected.

Please go to Trendmicro Housecall and run a full scan. Be sure to use v6.6 if you're on Vista.

Hello

I have AntiVir Personal edition which is up to date, Guard is on, Infact I have updated 2 times to day to check and ran virus scan 2 times as well.

I also have Ad-Aware 2007 free edition which is also up to date and i have updated it 2 times to day as well as well as ran 2 times.

I've also ran superanti spyware free edition and updated 2 times. It did remove

Trojan.Winfixer

Adware.vundo variant

Adware.tracking cookie

Adware.best offer network

Malware.driver cleaner

I then ran it again to make sure nothing was on it came up clean items where deleted some where quarantined i deleted the quarantined files

There are a few other programs which i have ran such as ATF cleaner, and CCleaner. and Hijackthis

I will do the scan now thanks :]

[-pops-]

sfdrv01 is a driver associated with StarForce and as it is incompatible with the Windows version you are using, it should be removed, together with all associated software.

BrSplService is a spooler associated with a Brother printer. If you have a Brother printer installed, delete it in the correct manner. If you have had a Brother printer installed but no longer do so or you are unaware where the spooler came from, check this http://www.pcreview.co.uk/forums/thread-386481.php

[ev0l]

Thats for that update I'll check into deleting the brother printer thing, I did have one but no more, I did uninstall it but it might have been mest up while uninstalling. So now that those two are out of the way what is

i8042prt and sptd

The starforce drivers i removed about 30 mins ago. :] Thanks Im still scaning with trendmicro housecall

buts its being very skittys trying to freeze and what not so ill post an update when its finished.. if it does finish.

[-pops-]

The i8042prt subkey stores data for the i8042prt driver. The i8042prt driver controls the keyboard and PS/2-compatible mouse for the Intel 8042 controller. Check this out http://www.file.net/process/i8042prt.sys.html

sptd check this http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/startups/sptd-13477.html

Be careful and do more checks before carrying out any of the recommendations in the links I have given.

[ev0l]

eh so i understand that the i8042prt has to do with keyboards and mouses

so if i was to delete/fix what ever is needed to it that my keyboard or mouse may not work right?

and the sptd thing still not to sure what it does it said something about it needs to be in startup obviously its important so if its mest up or i mess it up things could be bad?

[-pops-]

To get all your Windows files and dlls working correctly the safest thing is to use the system file checker. For XP see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310747

In Vista look at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833

[ev0l]

Before i got around to doing that I had ran uniblue registery booster 2 which found 900 some off reg errors

some of which where explorer.exe it fixed all of them if you wish for me to post it i will but its quiet long after fixing them i rebooted and then rescreashed again and found one which is

but now its found none

after rebooting.

Im going to try your method now to fix what ever else may be wrong if you still think it needs to be checked that way most of which the errors in my reg have been fixed atleast ones iv taken note of but my desktop and icons still disapear. after rebooting it no longer happens on random intervals like before. When i reboot it will take away the desktop and task bar leaving me with the task manager as the only thing able to open programs i can still see my wallpaper. But i go down in task manager to the botto mand find winlogon.exe I end process on it and it logs me back out. I log back in and the desktop will disappear and reappear instead of staying gone. Another thing i notice is when I run event viewer after nothing between the last error and the current time show anything with explorer.exe the only newest error between the last and the current time is

a Sptd.exe error which says in the detail in event viewer "drivers dected an internal error in its data structures for." and thats it

also in the last hour there has been 4 volume shadow copy service errors not sure what they are

so not to sure what thos are.

The last actual explorer.exe error that shows up was on the 14th

and the details for that in the event viewer reads "The Windows logon process has failed to spawn a user application. Application name: . Command line parameters: Explorer.exe."

so im stumped a little fixed a few things but still not the major problem :/

[-pops-]

Have you run the System File checker as in my 9-13 post?

[ev0l]

yes but its a bit confusing i got to the logs where i can view them in c:/windows/logs/cbs/cbs.logs should i post them in here? to show you or am i supposed to edit them? >_< cause whn i got to this part

3. Type the following command, and then press ENTER:

edit sfcdetails.txt

The Sfcdetails.txt file uses the following format:

Date/Time SFC detail

it got a bit confusing iono if i can mess things up if i did it wrong

>_<

[-pops-]

System file checker should repair any corrupt Windows files for you, not produce a report. The results you have obtained are somewhat confusing to me.

I am not very familiar with Vista so can you hold for a while until someone more expert comes along?

[AlanHo]

My recommendation would be to back up all your data and settings to suitable media - ideally an external USB drive - then do a reformat and clean install of Vista and your programmes from scratch.

I may take possibly 3 to 4 hours but is a certain cure. You could easily spend many more hours than this trying various solutions.

I would then buy a copy of Acronis and take a full backup of your nice clean unpolluted system onto the USB drive, and take regular weekly backups, so your system can be easily and quickly restored in future.

[ev0l]

so there is like no other way? i dont want to have to clean install vista unless its like my only option. the thing pops was telling me came to like a blue screen i dont know what to do after that

[ev0l]

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833

I do what it is told me to do. findstr /C:"[sR] Cannot repair member file" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log >sfcdetails.txt

I typ this and nothing happens. so then i type edit sfcdetails.txt The command prompt window turns blue no text but a flashing _ button. there is options at the top such as file, edit, search blah blah. At this point im just lost i don't know what to do. Because I don't understand the website that much not to mention it dont tell me what files are mest up so im not sure if im supposed to put in ones that are.

here is my log from hijackthis that i just scanned, is there anyproblems? >_< im a little confused atm

[ev0l]

another note that the problem doesnt occur anymore at random times. only when i start up after a reboot. its all fine till i click start control panel. a few seconds after that it disappears.
