i hope im not repeating myself but i cant find my previous post.i use dvd fab and dvd shrink for backups and recently they both wont open.ive done all the routine stuff.system restore,anti vir scans anti malware scans anti spyware scans etc. etc.yes reg cleaners too.nothing works.ive tried changing permissions ,def though i cant locate the .exe ive read that it wont help to run it that way.a recent event is likely related so here goes.all but a few of my desktop icons morphed into a near facsimile of the wimdows wordpad icon.very strange indeed.my system restore has retrieved my icons twice now,but fab and shrink still no go. avast says im all good after 2 scans so im lookin for a miracle......anybody?
