For NO APPARENT REASON i lost all my settings!

My desktop photo changed back to default.

My passwords lost!

Some Desktop icons gone and arranged to the original arrangement as if out of the box!

Try restoring from a Restore Point. I hope you had System Restore enabled...

Sounds like maybe you somehow logged into the wrong account?

Click on "Start", then "Help and Support", then "Undo changes to your computer with System Restore", then "Restore my computer to an earlier time". Then search for the last one before you lost your settings.

Just to update u all....somehow restore screwed up my BF2 cd-keys

i reinstalled BF2, then SF's, patched, redownlowded and installed AF, REPATCHED again, and finally simply place my "con" files into my profiles for my control settings and voila BF2 works!!!

Thx for the hlp guys

P.S.
I have a file in my BF2 cache folder that I cannot delete! The origin cannot be found so i remnamed it and if any one has any SIMPLE ideas to get rid of it let me know thx, if not i'll just forget it exists as painful as it is for some one who is anal about unused folders in my PC
