I have no history files. When I click on History The
history field has a folder that is titled History. Inside
that fold is a note pad titled index. When I click on the
note pad I get the following:
Incorrect command line parameter
Windows Installer. V2.00.2600.2 copyright reserved.

Portions of this software are based in part on the work of
the independent JPEG Group.

How do I get my history to come back.
 
Lisa,
Possibly your History folder is corrupt:
[XP\2K]
Log on as Administrator and delete the desired <username> folder(s).
[example]
"C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\HISTORY"
