Win7 with 3 user accounts, usually no probs but occasionally when logging into an account all you get is a blank blue screen, no mouse pointer, taskbar, start icon or desktop icons, justa blank blue screen.
Not BSOD though, looks like a blank desktop background! Ran anti virus which also came back clean. Joined Jul 14, Messages Ok will try that next time it happens, so is there a permanent fix to this? After all its an Microsoft product, we expect these things to happen.. LMAO ok thanks. Joined Jul 8, Messages Would this be the same problem if after pc goes into hibernate, then awakens and you can see desktop background, with only 2 icons Mozilla and another one but no Task Bar and clicking on icons doesn't work, nor does Start Button on keyboard etc?
Nothing works but to reboot Joined Nov 11, Messages A permanent fix - if major system files are crashing regularly there's obviously something wrong with your computer.. As Seen On.

Did you look for a shell api based approach use IShellFolder? Haven't tried it myself, though may be worth a shot. Caveat - two of the other answers there are also gross hacks.

Jacob, you might want to provide more background on what you are trying to do here. Are you trying to basically replace the shell outright, like on a dedicated kiosk, or just replace the desktop background, or run full-screen, or something else? And is this a permanent replacement, or just for the duration of some app that is running? Keep in mind though that there's any number of ways of side-stepping this type of app; right-clicking desktop may still bring up a menu, Ctrl-ESC will bring up windows menu, Alt-Tab will switch to other apps - and Ctrl-alt-del can be used to bring up the locked desktop and from there task manager.
First, click the "Start" button and then click "Computer". Now click "Organize" and then click "Folder and Search Options". Next, please click "View", uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types" and "Hide protected operating system files Recommended " and check "Show hidden files, folders, and drives". When done, click "OK".
If a warning window appears, click "Yes". Once done, press the Enter key on the keyboard. Finally, right click on "IconCache. Restart your computer, and the issue will be resolved.
