Hi all,
I had a software install go bad and after doing an ashampoo uninstall, I
can't get any programs to run by clicking on them (from the start menu, or
quick launch) or double clicking on them (desktop). Any ideas as to why? I
really don't want to re-install cause I just did a few weeks ago.
They will run if I right-click on them and then select open.
Any ideas?

Hi Mark,
Have you tried system restore to go back
prior to your botched install?
This may help,
Rich
