damnit

I got Control Panel and Explorer working, but I can't get ANYTHING else to work lol... most of the time I click and nothing happens, but with Recycle Bin and IE I get javascript errors from IE, which I know it is supposed to do, but how do I fix it for the ones that don't do anything I just click and nothing happens... Please help

 

[madmatt]

I have noticed that for most Microsoft applications you have to create your own shortcut. You cannot just copy an already created shortcut. Simply right click in Explorer and choose New followed by shortcut. Then link to the application. This should solve your problem.
