Default no desktop and taskbar at startup

I tried to fix this problem and ran taskmanager after start up and typed in
explorer in new task it works, but temporarily. After reboot or restart I
have to type in explorer again and again. Only my documents comes up after
reboot or restart.

For starters, check this key in the Registry Editor:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

In the right pane, make sure there is a REG_SZ Type with a value Name
"Shell" (no quotation marks) that has value Data "explorer.exe" (no
quotation marks).

Found this post via Google, as I was having the same issue. Somehow,
the registry entry in question had been changed, with a service added
after explorer. AV scan was clean, so does anyone know why it changed on
me?
