Foolishly used TweakUI to alter shortcuts, Help?

[JayG]

So I used TweakUI on NT 4 Workstation to remove the little arrows from shortcuts. DUH. Now when I right-click a desktop shortcut, I get Dr. Watson on Explorer.exe. This doesn't apply to the system &quot;shortcuts&quot; (My Computer, etc.), they work fine and the other shortcut functions work fine. I have since removed Powertoys and any related files or registry entries, but still no luck.<br>
<br>
I have even installed Service Pack 6a, which replaced Explorer.exe with an 11/18/99 version. All to no avail.<br>
<br>
My question... Might anyone know which .dll or registry entry I messed up. MS doesn't support PowerToys, and even though I did find some info related to this in the Knowledge Base, it didn't help.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for any suggestions you might have !!!<br>

do you have any other users on that sign onto that NT box? if so, copy (if it exists) the short cut from their c:\winnt\profile\%wherever% to replace the one that is crashing. There are some apps out there that mimic the profile subdirectory by creating a user subdirectory of its own in its own tree and then assigning properties there (see OnNet 4.0). What app is causing the problem?
