Title: active desktop
Post by: walt on October 07, 2002, 01:28:47 PM

O/S Windows 2000 Pro sp3
IE 6sp1


After hours of trying the suggestions from MS Knowledge base and some that I found on the web I still have the same problem. If I try to use “Active Desktop” I get this response “Internet Explorer cannot find the Active Desktop HTML file. This file is needed for your active desktop. To turn off active desktop click OK”. I have reinstall IE 6sp1 a couple of times I even edited the registry to change the version number to 5.50 so I could trick Windows into doing a complete reinstall. Were does IE look for this file? What is the name of the file? Help
