Finally, in the control panel, i do not have a display icon (amongst many
other things), how do i egt it back.

The only thing I can help you with is the double click. I don't know any
reasons as to why you get nothing for properties when you right click on the
desktop, and I don't know why you don't have an icon for control panel.
Hopefully someone else can help you there.

Anyway, as for enabling double click...go to START then to SETTINGS then to
FOLDER OPTIONS. Near the bottom of the page, you can customize how Windows
views your folders. Go to CUSTOMIZE and at the bottom of the page, there is
an option to single click or double click. You can make any changes there.
Hope that helps.
