“RESTORE MY DESKTOP” error in Windows XP System

Sometimes when working in Windows XP we may come with this Problem. A button will be showed in the desktop with a Text “Restore My Desktop”. On Clicking the button you will get the script error message

Error:

file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/My%20Name/Application%20Data/Microsoft/Internet%20Explorer/Desktop.htt“

Resolution:

For this we need to do some change in the Registry.

Note: Extra Care should be taken while working with Registry.

Type “regedit” in the RUN dialog box.

Search for the following Key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\SafeMode\Components

Change the Keyvalue of the right side of the pane as follows

DeskHtmlVersion REG_DWORD 0×00000110(272) to decimal zero

Close Regedit and logoff the system and log on.
