Fix desktop.ini Auto Open In Notepad On Start Up In Windows 7 Build 7057

This is the minor bugs that I mentioned before, the desktop.ini launch at every start up in Notepad on Windows 7 7057 RC1.



To fix this just follow these simple steps:

1. Open Windows Explorer, then click on Organize -> Folder and Search Options.
2. Go to View tab.
3. Under “Hidden files and folders” tree, select Show hidden files, folders and drives.
4. Uncheck Hide protected operating system files in order to be able to view the hidden desktop.ini file.
5. Click OK when done.
6. Navigate to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup folder, or alternatively, just type shell:common startup in Start Search and hit Enter.
7. Delete desktop.ini file inside the folder.
8. Navigate to C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup folder, or alternatively, just type shell:startup in Start Search and hit Enter.
9. Delete desktop.ini file inside the folder.
10. The bug has been fixed, and no Notepad window with desktop.ini will appear on reboot or startup anymore.

That's it, enjoy your Windows 7 RC1.
