I think I might have deleted something I shouldn't have from registry editor and now the desktop is gone, replaced by an empty black screen. There are no desktop icons and the Task Bar is gone. I am only able to access the internet and write this because of Task manager. I want to do a system restore but there is no Charm Bar and the Control Panel refuses to open. Any suggestions?
