Hi all,

I'm having some problems accessing the Control Panel is Vista for some reason. Everytime I try to access it (im trying to uninstall a program) it says "Windows Explorer has encountered a problem" bla bla bla... then restarts "Explorer.exe" ...

Ok, now I have tried accessing it via "Start > Run > Control Panel and also via a command prompt, then running the various *.CPL files from c:\windows\system32\ but still the same message...Safe Mode also the same!

I have looked for rogue drivers / software / updates etc to no avail!

Please Help as I am starting to go gray(er)

Thanks,
Rob.

You might have a virus on your computer. Download Spybot and scan with it, and also Avast and scan with it.
