Hello Louis,  
 
Prior to these problems, did you use possibly use UniMaint to remove an application? I   
did and I got problems similar to the ones you describe. It was caused by my taking   
UniMaint's advise that a particular desktop *.dll was tied to the application, that I was   
trying to uninstall. I was a little hesitant about it, because it looked like it belonged to the   
desktop, or WPS, and not my application. But I had UniMaint remove it anyway, along   
with the application.  
 
Immediately afterwards I could not use my WPS drive objects correctly. They would   
lock up my system. And the drive objects and FileStar disagreed about what was on   
the drive.  
 
I used UniMaint to reinstall the application and everything was back to normal. Then I   
used UniMaint to properly uninstall the application and reinstall it in another location. As   
I recall, the application was the IBM browser, which I wanted to remove from the ECS   
installation drive and place on my C:\ drive.  
 
Perhaps you did something similar??
