Hello,
Yesterday I've installed Windows 7057 (RC1), I upgraded it from 7048 with a mounted image. I already managed the problem with notepad starting up on each boot up but the new windows boots up for about 10 minutes and when it finally shows my desktop it keeps causing problems. I can move the mouse but suddenly I can't click on anything, than gadgets load up and system makes another freez althoug a gadget shows Core1: 2% Core2: 3% and RAM: 70% FREE, after some minutes it runs ok but freezes when I start installing/uinstalling. All in all full boot up takes up to 15 minutes :/ Any solution ? Thank you for further replies.
My computer:
Core2Duo E8400, 3,5GHz
EP43-S3L Gigabyte Motherboard
2GB HyperX Kingston CL4 ( Dual channel )
250GB SATA (here is the system installed) & 80GB IDE
GF 9600GT Gigabyte MCC

How did you solve it? It's not a show stopper, but I would like to know why. Build 7022 did not have this.

Thanks in advance.

Found this:

Startup Bug, Desktop.ini Opens in Notepad on Every Boot – FIX
This is an odd bug, mostly due to the fact that some instances of desktop.ini are visible and not set to system and hidden. Fortunately the fix for this is quite easy:​
  1. Navigate to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup​
  2. Delete desktop.ini​
  3. Navigate to C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup​
  4. Delete desktop.ini if present.​
Re: Notepad bug fix

Apparently I'm more of a computer idiot than I thought, but there is no "programdata" file or "appdata" file. I am not able to follow your file string on 1 or 3.

nevermind, figured it out.
I'VE TRIED THIS BUG FIX FOR NOTEPAD BUT WHEN I FOLLOW THE PATH I GET "DESKTOP SETTINGS" NOT ".ini". AM I DOING SOMETHING WRONG?
Never mind! I figured it out...... "desktop settings" is an ".ini" file!
