Hi,
My Win2k RDP termianl server has a weird problem. If I go
Start|Settings|Printers nothing happens, no printer window but no hanging.
I've rebooted and tried again, nothing.
I can still use the start menu and run shortcuts from the desktop but I've
also discovered that double clicking My Computer also just gives nothing.
The weird thing is that on trying to log out the system brings up a window
saying "End program - explorer.exe" etc.etc.. This implies to me that an
explorer thread is started for the printers folder or my computer but it
hangs/stops or whatever.
I suppose my questions are...
1) Has anybody seen this before and how can I fix it please?
2) If no-one has seen it how do I start troubleshooting it. I used process
explorer from sysinternals, all very interesting but not much help to a
pharmacist!
Many thanks
Richard
