    Welcome to WindowsBBS! :)

    When was the last time your programs on the desktop worked okay?

    Do they work in Safe mode?

    Do you have a backup from say a month ago?

    You'll have to give more information. What happens when you try to open a program? Do you receive any error messages? Have the icons of the programs changed? All programs or just some? If some, which?
