saifaiInstead of finding out how the missing Explorer happened, or even find out how to fix it, I just worked around it.
I've got instead of the Windows Desktop, a new shell program called bbLean. Bonus? Low memory footprint, meaning it'll work better for my system that's already bogged down as it is. So far a few things are running faster now since I installed it.
The odd thing is that some of the other Explorer programs work again. I can't directly open the Explorer, obviously, but if I say open a Zip file, I can backspace and browse files that way.
As an alternate though, I installed a Explorer replacement program called ExplorerXP.
I know, I know. It's a cover up. It's not fixing what caused the problem to begin with. But my Monk is happy because everything is handy and at my fingertips again. I can work on trying to figure out how this happened tomorrow.
Still open for any suggestions if anyone has ideas for me on the problem. I'm trying to avoid having to reinstall Windows. Me and Windows don't get along, or at least reinstalling it always creates problems for me. LOL
