Default Wheres my programs?

Ok... this started off yesterday when I deleted 8 Gigs of **** and old vidoe from my desktop (lol)...... when I was done, I found my recycling bin have dissapeared. So I googled this, and found some "registry" thinge... and ran it.. and the recycling bin came back.

Then my computer went aweful slow, so I just left it be.


I went to bed, and woke 10 minutes ago (but my brother says he was on for 10 minutes earlier to check something... worked for him). Everything had froze when I turned it on, so I restarted my computer. When it restarted, it was taking an unusually long time... and for about 45 seconds, all it shows was the cursor and the wallpaper (this scared the **** out of me).

2 New things came up out of the usual restart:

1)A message/error that something called "Intellitype" failed to run or something (dunno what it is or what it means)

2)A "Windows Installer) box come up, that says " The feature you are trying to use is on a networl resource that is unavailable... and tried to instll something called "OpenMG Secure Module.msi".

But when I click "OK" nothing happens...A it just comes right back up... as if its unable to do what it wants to.


And in addition, When I click Start<All Programs, NOTHING happens. NOTHING opens.


ALSO in addition, "Search" fomr the start menu also doesnt work. ("Unexpected error")


PS: I'm thinkin this is something related to the registry file :S



I've restarted my compund nothing changes.


PLEASE HELP ME!!!



Thankyou for reading

Welcome to PCHF , Torrobinson2.


Can you give some more info as to what you deleted and how?

Also if you go to "C:\Program Files" are you programs still there?

Ah yes, My Programs are still there.

All I deleted was a bunch of old video files and files for Sony Vegas and some PSP homebrew I was done using.... nothing out of the ordinary...

Not much info to go on , Have you deleted things from youre "documents and settings" , "windows" or "program files" folders?
Or maybe from the registry? Have you used any programs to clean anything?
