Hi all
After uninstalling some s/w, when I double click on any folder in
windows explorer, I can no longer see any files or file details in the
folder. All I get is a single square icon with a grey centre. Obviously
the uninstall is removing a shared file or files, but which ones? Can
anyone help? Which dlls are responsible for this view in Windows
Explorer? Reinstalling the s/w fixes the issue.

Thanks
Andrew
 
Uninstall the offending software again but do not let the uninstall remove
shared files?
 
It turns out that registering mshtml.dll fixes this, but I tried to
reproduce the behaviour on my machine my unregistering mshtml.dll and
the folders are unaffected! Any ideas?

Thanks
Andrew
