these instructions worked great btw

Thanks everyone for the help its working great now i have my desktop back thanks sooooo much!

what did you do to fix it?

reinstalled NOD in hopes i had a file in my quarantine that was the issue nothing ugh this sucks

I had ESET NOD 32 8 installed just recently uninstalled... didnt have the beta installed

this is over my head lol

I am aware that you stated that you couldn't find the entry I thought I would try it anyway.
I of course dont have auto arrange checked. i have tried turning it on and then off again no change. ...

i tried doing this and merging no go didnt do anything.... this is getting quite annoying
