RE: Icons missing :Windows Administration Tools installed on a Wor

Hi Ian,

Thanks for your response.

If the issue is occurring on all user accounts, I am not sure if this issue
is related to the system files corrupt. I will suggest you try the
following steps:

Step1
I suggest we first restart the computer in Safe Mode to see if the problem
also occurs in this mode. Safe Mode loads a minimally protected-mode
configuration, disabling Windows device drivers and using the standard VGA
display adapter.

1. Restart the computer.
2. Keep pressing F8 key until the Windows Startup menu appears.
3. Choose the Safe Mode, and press Enter.

Note: Some third party applications and hardware devices cannot be used
during Safe Mode.

Step2
Use Windows Installer Cleanup utility to uninstall Administration Tools.
290301: Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/en-us

Step3
If the issue occurs in the Safe Mode, please perform the following steps to
run System File Checker. To verify if some system files are corrupted, also
please run System File Checker (SFC).
1. Click on Start, click on Run and type "CMD" (without the quotation
marks). Press Enter. This opens the Command Prompt window.
2. Type "SFC" (without the quotation marks) and press Enter. It lists the
option you can choose. You can then choose an option, such as "SFC
/scannow" (without the quotation marks). Press Enter.
Note: You will be prompted to insert the Windows XP SP2 CD, do so.

Step4
Please try to reinstall it to test the issue again.

Thanks & Regards,

Ken Zhao

occurs
