OS: Win2k3.

I do not have desktop and the icons. However, the data on this is accessible via Remote Desktop and via network. All Remote Desktop sessions are also seeing a blank screen. Thru Task Manager we were able to run some tasks very tediously, though. Explorer.exe, when run thru TM, runs for a second and vanishes, not shown in TM - Processes.

I also notice that I cannot run the explorer.exe via Task Manager. i ran SuperAntispyware and it cleaned up a number of Adware cookies - no spyware or trojans.

If I can get my Desktop back - it is fantastic. But immediately, how do I access Administrative Tasks thru TM.

All help is appreciated.

Type control into run, or type MMC and add them as snapins.

Sounds like your explorer.exe is corrupted. Type sfc /scannow into run to check.
