Symptómy

Some Dell users have reported that after installing Windows 7 Build 7057 that a Notepad window will automatically open every time the system boots up. Notepad will open a version of "desktop.ini" with the following text: "[.ShellClassInfo] LocalizedResourceName=@%SystemRoot%\System32\Shell32.dll,-21787".

Príčina

This can occur if a Dektop.ini file exists in one or more folders, on the drive on which windows is installed and the Desktop.ini file contains the following lines: "[.ShellClassInfo] LocalizedResourceName=@%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll,-21787"

Run theMicrosoft Fix it utility

  1. Scroll down to the Fix it for me section and click on Fix this problem.
  2. When prompted to Download the file, click Run.
  3. Go through the installation wizard to run the utility and restart the system.;
