    Win7 C: properties HELP

    Hello, running Win7 and when I right click on C: in file manager, it responds with a small box saying" DESKTOP (at the top) The properties of this item are not available"
    I do this to check C: for space, but this error has been coming up for a while and can’t connect it to any program installed or other wise.
    I’ve no virus or other problems since I use several testers to verify.

      Also have you removed any programs recently?

        Yes I ran sfc scannow and rebooted but still not fixed, I did remove some programs for disk space, but can’t remember what it was that was removed, going to try safe mode and see if that helps, I appreciate the help

          Also, check to see if the issue persist in another account on the computer. If there is no issue on the second account, then perhaps[COLOR=rgb(0, 168, 133)] this tool will be of service.[/COLOR]

            see if you have any left over folders from the removal
            C:\Users[COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)]{insert your name}\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup[/COLOR]
