I keep having problems with a little error at the bottom of the Windows Explorer Page that says "Loading Java Applet Failed". I found out how to change the settings which is listed below, problem is: There is no Java Plug In Folder in the Control Panel. Is this normal? Click the Start menu Select Settings Select Control Panel Double click the "Java Plug-in" icon Click the "Proxies" Tab
My folder options is missing in the control panel as well as in the tools menu. only options that show in tools menu are (Map Network Drive,Disconnect Network Drive,Synchronize)
my folder icon in contol panel is not present . how can i back my folder icon in cotrol panel.also folder option in tools menu of directory is also not present.how can i see hidden files in my system.
There is this folder in my Control Panel, it has no name, nothing whatsoever. The only actions it can do is Open and Create Shortcut, nothing else. It sits as the first icon, before Accessibility Options.I was afraid to open this folder, for it may be a malware or something. But anti-virus and anti-spyware scans came up clean.
I run Windows xp sp2, I often use hibernation option, recently I am unable to do this. When I go into power options in the control panel the hibernation tab is missing, also in the turn off computer options in the start menu the standby tab is greyed out
I have been experiencing a problem with Windows Explorer where i cannot open any folders, Control Panel, etc. When I try to do so, explorer restarts. I tried a System Restore and that fixed the problem for the moment, but it came back a couple days later. I ran a virus scan (Norton) and it didn't find anything of note.
i have a 8 month old computer with 512Mb RAM 3Ghz intel P4 processer and a 160Gb hard drive. basically i think there are missing system files because my computer has slowed right down when opening folders / applications and i cannot access the control panel (it says windows explorer has had to close). i run the free AVG virus scanner, Zone Alarm firewall and the AOL spyware protection.

When I go to the control panel and then into Display, the only tabs that I have are screen saver and settings. I read a similiar problem and did everything that was mentioned there but NOTHING HELPED. My desktop is a black background. I did have a w32.desktophighjack oleext32.dll How do I restore the display tabs?
i just got the "mywebsearch" malware on my comp, i used malwarebyte antimalware and its gone but now its say its missing rundll32 and i cant open control panel anymore, is there a way to fix it without reinstalling windows?
I've gone through and removed hundreds of viruses and cleaned it up pretty well. However, I can't access the CONTROL PANEL because it is missing from the START menu. I checked the start button properties, and it isn't listed in the customize/advanced menu. It's just not there. I'm fairly certain that I've gotten all the virus and spyware activity off the computer. I've now scanned it with 3 separate programs. I've tried booting into Safe Mode and Also logging on as Administrator (in safe mode), but it won't re-appear. I've even done the cmd: mmc / add/remove snap-in / add "groups" (as directed by another website) but "groups" isn't even listed. Come to think of it, it's not listed in this computer either (xp home).
My internet options icon has gone missing in control panel when I click on it in tools in internet explorer nothing happens. I have tried a few spyware scans nothing significant found, also one system restore to the previouse day internet options did not appear. I am on windows xp pro anyone know where my internet options has gone and how do I get it back?
The "Desktop" tab has disappeared from the display portion of control panel.I am running WIN XP on a Compaq with 512 megs of ram and a 2.1 gig processor.
I seem to have a problem similar to at least one other person.Control Panel has disappeared and any attempt to change any settings results in an error messge directing me to the Sys Admin.
I've been reading other members' problems with missing control panels and settings. I have a similar problem. I can't access my time and setting. I have no control panel. Each time I click on the time I receive this message "This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator. I'm the admin. and I can't access anything. I tried clicking properties, start menu, advance, but there is no control panel.
I have a work computer running Windows XP Pro and I noticed that there is no mail client icon in the control panel. I do not have Microsoft Outlook installed on this computer, is that the reason or is something else wrong?
every time i insert a DVD into my computer, i try and double click on the drive, but an error comes up saying "D: This file does not have a program associated with it for performing these actions. Create an association in the Folder Options control panel
I got a friend who is having problems with his XP. His start menu shows all the icons for programs but under some things like My Computer, and some others, there is no text or title text. On Facebook, you can see a person's picture on the feed, but no name. In Firefox, with new tabs, it doesn't show what the tab titles are. Control panel too also shows all icons and no title.
After my pc has been infected by the "bagle prague" (hldrrr/wintems/flec006/srosa) i got cleaned by a software called Regrun. But the malwares have left some problems on my pc. The main problem is : In Control Panel / Folder option / View, i cant find the options related to "show hidden files". In this forum there is a solution already posted,but it didnt solve my problem.

I want a single desktop click to enable/disable windows XP taskbar auto hide.I can do this if I write a script for the AutoHotkey macro tool to open the relevant dialog box and then check or uncheck the appropriate check box.I'd like to open the dialog box with a command line from AutoHotkey, or a similar operation. Right-clicking the taskbar even in the program is uncool.The catch is, I can execute any CP dialog EXCEPT this one as a command line, either passing a dialog parameter to Control.exe or else using a *.cpl file name with Control.exe or directly. But I can't find "Taskbar and Start Menu".
When I open my Windows XP Control Panel, there is a Java Control Panel (Version 2 1.50) and a Java Plugin Control Panel 1.3.1_04. Are both updated seperately? Do they operate independently? The first looks relatively modern and the former looks relatively basic?
I have lost my control panel function. When I click on "control panel" I get the message "This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator.My PC is not networked with any other equipment.
I can not get a photo or anything other than a "color" to be my desktop wallpaper. When I am in the control panel - display - the only buttons that are active are the "browse" and "color" buttons. The "position" button does not work. I can't even get one of the Windows backgrounds to display. The photo I choose to use is there somewhere because it is visible briefly when I start mycomputer. Then it disappears and is replaced by a "color" only screen.This is a very recent problem. I'm guessing some settings are incorrect.
I accidently posted this in "Vista" so I'm reposting it here as the operating system I have is XP Professional. I'm having a problem with "Display" in the Control Panel. Yesterday I visited a website and opened a file. After I did that, my wallpaper changed and it appeared to be whatever the website was. I was able to somehow get it off (don't ask me what I did, I couldn't tell you). Now, when I click on "Display" in the Control Panel and go to "Desk Top", the only thing that I can change is the color and I can also click on "Customize Desktop", but I cannot change the background or click on browse...".
