Startup and related problmes

[aditya.shevade]

Hi

I don't know what has suddenly happened. The bluetooth icon that is there on the taskbar disappears after some time. That also happens when I put my laptop in standby mode and then start it again. It was not like this before some days, the bluetooth icon used to stay in the taskbar all the time.

I checked in the 'msconfig' file, and bluetooth has been flagged as common startup. And now when the icon disappears from the taskbar, it appears in the startup tree in all programs. But still I cannot access it from there.

Then when I right click on start, the menu is like the file attached. Why is there a gap below search? What is the reason and how can I remove it. I guess some regisrty editing will be required, but I don't know where is the contex menu of start.

So please tell me what to do.

Regarding to the extra space in right-click, open regedit and goto:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory

Now under this key, u'll get Shell & ShellEx keys. Look in them and check whether they contain ne key with some strange characters or with some location, which doesnt exist in ur comp!

Or post a screenshot of these keys!

I checked. There is a key named ddeexec. When I click on the empty space in the contex menu, DAP File Shreader is opened. But the blank space in olnly visible in case os start. If I right click on any other directory, the blank space is not there.

So why don't u delete that key in regedit?

It'll completely remove the blank space!

I deleted that. But still no change. I will try after rebooting and get back if the same problem exists.
