윈도우 10 무료 업그레이드가 그제 2016년 7월 29일자로 종료되었습니다.

Windows 7 을 사용하다가 필자도 부랴부랴 마지못해 업그레이드를 했죠.

그런데 인터넷 익스플로러를 사용중에 즐겨찾기를 누르면 즐겨찾기 메뉴가 사라지지 않고 화면에 남아있는 버그가 있었습니다.

익스플로러 프로세스를 죽이기 위해 작업관리자로 들어가봅니다.

마우스 오른쪽 클릭을 해서 "작업 끝내기"로 프로세서를 종료시켜봅니다.

반응이 없군요. 익스플로러가 좀비 프로세스가 되어 버렸습니다. ㅠㅠ 

결국 이럴때마다 다른 작업에 지장을 주니까 어쩔수 없이 재부팅해서 사용했는데

결국 더이상은 안되겠다 싶어 직접 해결해보기로 하였습니다.

구글링 해봐도 해외 사용자들은 이런 문제를 겪지 않는것 같습니다.

아마 이 현상이 일어나는 문제는 동양권 문화의 유니코드와 관련된 이유때문에 발생하는 것 같습니다.

즐겨찾기 메뉴에 한글로 되어있는 폴더가 있을시 즐겨찾기 메뉴가 사라지지 않는 버그가 있습니다. 

일단 기존의 한글이름으로 된 폴더는 전부 영어로 바꾸어주었습니다.

"즐겨찾기 모음"이란 폴더는 익스플로러에서 특별한 용도로 사용하는 폴더입니다. 메뉴 아래에 표시되는 웹사이트 주소 모음들이 바로 여기에 저장됩니다.

한글 윈도우의 경우 "즐겨찾기 모음"이란 이름으로 사용되지만, 영문 윈도우의 경우에는 "Links" 란 이름으로 사용됩니다.

윈도우 탐색기를 실행시켜 C:\Users\사용자 계정명\Favorites 으로 이동합니다.

즐겨찾기 모음 이란 폴더를 선택합니다. 폴더안의 내용을 보면 desktop.ini 란 파일이 보입니다.

(만약 보이지 않는 경우에는 윈도우 탐색기의 파일 - 옵션 - 보기 에서 숨김 파일, 폴더 및 드라이브 표시를 선택해줍니다.)

desktop.ini 는 폴더의 아이콘을 표시한다던지 하는 등의 용도로 사용됩니다. 한번 안의 내용을 볼까요?

바로 이 부분이 문제가 있는 것 같습니다. 그래서 우리는 이 파일을 삭제해주어야 합니다.

파일을 삭제해주면 즐겨찾기 모음이란 폴더가 자동으로  Links 로 바뀌게 됩니다. LocalizedResourceName 에 디폴트값을 사용하게 되는겁니다.

이제 익스플로러 창을 전부 닫고 다시 실행시켜봅니다.

이제 더 이상 즐겨찾기 메뉴가 사라지지 않는 현상은 일어나지 않습니다.

저랑 같은 어려움을 겪고 있는 분들께 이 글이 조금이나마 도움이 되었으면 좋겠네요.

오늘 서울에선 11시에 폭염주의보가 내렸군요. 다들 건강에 유의합시다.

P.S.]  위 증상은 카스퍼스키 2016 백신과 충돌로 일어나는 현상이랍니다. IE11 과 즐겨찾기 충돌문제가 있다고 합니다.

Updated July 2, 2015 1:19 pm - With around four weeks to go before Windows 10 becomes available, I thought it would be helpful to provide some context on how we will roll-out Windows 10 to the world. We’ve been really pleased with the strong response to Windows 10 since we kicked off reservations in early June, with millions of reservations. We want to make sure all of you have a great upgrade experience, so we’ll roll-out Windows 10 in phases to help manage the demand. More details on what to expect are provided below.

We’ve shared before how Windows 10 will be familiar and more secure, with a natural experience that makes it easy for people to be more productive and have more fun. We can’t wait to deliver innovations like Cortana, Windows Hello, Microsoft Edge, Continuum, and so much more to your PC or tablet on July 29.* For the first time, we will deliver Windows as a service, with the commitment to offer ongoing innovations and security updates to you. In this world, Windows 10 is continuously improved and keeps getting better and better – for our consumer and business customers. We’re incredibly proud of the progress we’ve made and believe we are nearly ready to ship Windows 10 broadly to the world.

Preparing for Windows 10 Upgrades

With all of our ecosystem partners, we have been actively engaged to work on device and application compatibility. It’s been amazing to see the teamwork taking place across companies to ensure a quality experience as our shared customers experience Windows 10 soon. In our testing of millions of systems, we’re seeing full compatibility today with the vast majority of Windows 8x and Windows 7x systems– and we are not yet done, we will never be done – we will be continuing this application and device compatibility work every day as part of our ongoing commitment to Windows as a service.

We are also rigorously testing and listening to every signal from our 5 million Windows Insiders on the quality and readiness of Windows 10.

Soon, we will give a build of Windows 10 to our OEM partners so they can start imaging new devices with Windows 10. The new devices our partners are working on are very exciting, I can’t wait to hear your feedback as you get a chance to use them.

Soon after, we will distribute a build of Windows 10 to retailers all over the world, so they can assist their customers with upgrades of newly purchased devices that were originally imaged with Windows 8.1. Look for this sticker for assurance that our OEM partners have proactively tested a device for compatibility with Windows 10.

How To Know When You’re Ready to Upgrade

Starting on July 29, we will start rolling out Windows 10 to our Windows Insiders. From there, we will start notifying reserved systems in waves, slowly scaling up after July 29th. Each day of the roll-out, we will listen, learn and update the experience for all Windows 10 users.

If you reserved your copy of Windows 10, we will notify you once our compatibility work confirms you will have a great experience, and Windows 10 has been downloaded on your system.

If your system is not ready yet for your upgrade to Windows 10, we will provide more details during the upgrade experience. In some cases, we will include contact information so you can follow up directly with an application provider or device manufacturer to learn more. For most upgrade incompatibilities, you may still choose to complete the upgrade, and find alternative compatible solutions in the Windows Store after you upgrade.

Business Customers and Windows 10

The Windows as a service model extends to our enterprise and business customers as well. We’ve announced new servicing benefits, such as Windows Update for Business, and we’re working hard on a range of new features and capabilities for our enterprise customers. Windows 10 Pro will be available on July 29, along with Windows 10 Home. Volume licensing customers will be able to download Windows 10 Enterprise and Windows 10 Education on Volume Licensing Service Center (VLSC) starting on August 1.

Window 10 Pro, Windows 10 Enterprise and Windows 10 Education offer a rich set of fundamentals that you would expect from Windows, and a range of security, deployment and management features. Just like for our consumer customers, we’ll continue to introduce new features and updates in an ongoing manner, including Enterprise Data Protection later this year. You can see more details on each version, including specific features, here. We encourage you to prepare for your deployment of Windows 10 in the coming months.

Thank you to our Windows Insiders for helping us build Windows 10. We hope you’ll continue to stay in the Windows Insider program and provide us with ongoing, valuable feedback on what comes next. Thank you to our partners for helping us ensure a great upgrade experience for our joint customers. And, thank you to our early reserve customers. We are humbled by your excitement and we can’t wait to deliver Windows 10 to you soon. For others, I encourage you to reserve your copy now. We will notify you when Windows 10 is ready for your PC, tablet, phone, Xbox, or HoloLens!
