Everything stops working!

None of my shortcuts or programs work. I just restarted, and it was like
this. The only thing that still works is Firefox. Help!

Hi Frederick,

You may want to consider using System Restore to roll back the system to
a date just before this started.

I've only got one account, it's definitely not accounts. And System Restore
doesn't work, just like everything else.

Hi Frederick,

Have you tried running System Restore form Safe Mode?

If not, you may want to consider performing a repair install.
