Re: Control Panel Problems

I don't know the solution but you can open the items using Start > Run :
Scheduled Tasks : "C:\Windows\Tasks"
Printers and faxes : "control printers"
Network Connections: "ncpa.cpl"

Enter the shortcuts in Start > Run without quotes.

Hi

I'm running XP SP2 and have encountered some odd problems.

If I click on Control Panel from the Start Menu, I get MY Computer
opening up.

If I click on Control Panel from there, it takes me to the Control
Panel.

However, if I click on either Network Connections, Printers and Faxes
and Scheduled Tasks, I go back to My Computer.

I can go to Network Connections from My Computer, but I cannot access
Printers and Faxes or Scheduled Tasks at all.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Oh, I'm running AVG 7.5 Internet Security.

Cheers
