If you are a Windows Vista user and you can't access Control Panel or Welcome Center or can't start Games, then this tutorial will help you.

Many times Windows Vista users face a very strange problem. Whenever they open Control Panel, Welcome Center or start games. A "Windows Explorer" window pops up and disappears. You have no idea why is this weird thing happening?

Don't worry. If you are one of them who are facing this problem then follow these simple steps:

1. Open Service Manager by giving "services.msc" command in RUN or Startmenu Search box.

2. In right-side pane, look for a service "Software Licensing". Double-click on it and make sure its Startup type is set to "Automatic". If its not, then change it to "Automatic" and click on "Start" button to start the service.
