I have a system running w2k pro and recently had a few bsod's and now when I log on with that profile (admin rights) I get an error that says that explorer.exe has generated errors and must close. I can log in as administrator or on one of the other user accounts and I am OK. Can I fix the bad profile and if so how? Thank you Also note that when I log on with this account I can get to the desktop but when I hit start or try to open a folder I get the error.

Why not delete this profile and allow W2K to create a new profile?
