JayDee Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Hello guys, I had this sudden settings error yesterday on my Windows 7 Pro x64. All was fine until I realized the below errors. 1- The default view chosen for every folder was reset to default. Now I am not able to chose a view settings for a certain folder without it being converted back to the default once I close that folder. 2- The System icons near the clock on taskbar keeps hiding themselves. Now the taskbar chooses what needs to be hidden and what needs to be shown. Even thought I drag the wanted icons to be shown, once I restart the laptop, the icons revert to being hidden. Don't know what triggered such error. Is there any recommended fix ? Karlston 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dino8 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 (edited) All you can do with this are the standard recovery methods. Put these commands in a admin command prompt (one at a time): chkdsk c: /f DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth sfc /scannow If that didn't cure it you can also try Microsoft Fix It portable : https://www.downloadcrew.com/article/27350-microsoft_fix_it_portable Good luck, hope this works for you.

coromonadalix Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 any recent updates ? In the folder options you have the "apply to all" button you have the taskbar setup and icon properties ... you have the "always show all icons" if i recall ..

Tried that, the taskbar keeps hiding the same apps. On 3/25/2020 at 5:07 PM, Dino8 said: All you can do with this are the standard recovery methods.
