This is an odd bug, mostly due to the fact that some instances of desktop.ini are visible and not set to system and hidden. Fortunately the fix for this is quite easy:

1. Navigate to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
2. Delete desktop.ini
3. Navigate to C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
4. Delete desktop.ini if present.

Yupp! That did it. Thanks.

dont try to upgrade beta/preRC1 builds. and for sure dont do it on a hard drive you care about. just saying.

I did the upgrade from 7048 to 7057 and everything worked fine except the ATI Catalyst. Refused to uninstalled/installed

The Desktop.ini error is not causing this problem. 100% positive about this. If this were the case, then millions of people would have the same problem. I have googled this problem, but only found two threads in forums about this issue. And both are in this forum. My thread and this thread. But thanks for your contribution


I tried doing a fresh install on a different harddrive. No such luck.
Beginning to think it's the Chipset-drivers that are messing it up. The chipset-drivers that are contained in Win7

Let's merge these posts with the ones here

No point in having different threads for the same discussion.

go to have a look at this thread---correct solution

I have not lost mine, but it takes much longer to make the network icon become active. In fact sometimes I have to launch the browser to make the icon show its connected state. This didn't happen in build 7022.
