Fix the problem with "Active Desktop Recovery"

Having problem with your "Active Desktop Recovery"?
No need to worry at all, just a simple way to solve your problem without formating your operating system over and over again.

There are 2 Methods to solve your problem:

Method 1:

* Run "regedit"

* Find this entry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\SafeMode\Components

* Change the key value - DeskHtmlVersion REG_DWORD 0x00000110(272) to decimal zero

* Close "regedit". Log off and log in again.


Method 2:

Copy the code given below to notepad and save as activedesktop.vbs (vbs is the extension), run the file. Then logoff from your account and log in again.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER = &H80000001
strComputer = "."
Set objReg = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")
strKeyPath = "Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\SafeMode\Components"
strValue = "0"
ValueName = "DeskHtmlVersion"
objReg.SetDWORDValue HKEY_CURRENT_USER, strKeyPath, ValueName, strValue

Walla! it worked and my problem is solved!

*** Method 1 is not recommended for beginners.
And after all, DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Good Luck.
