I can go into my documents and open like a song from the folder and then itunes will open, but when I double click on ANYTHING on my desktop or start menu it just acts like I haven't done anything. Nothing will open, and this is about to be a problem for school, because I will need to use Word and video prgrams. Can anyone help me. I think it may have happened when I was doing something in the "cmd" i found something that said you could hack into a myspace profile and I wanted to see if it worked on my profile, and my computer has been messed up ever since..PLEASE HELP!

That's what happens. Whoever told you that probably wanted you to mess up your computer. And you can't really 'hack' myspace without getting the attention of a lot of people. When you run Cmds you're directly manipulating your computer, so you may have wrecked the whole OS.

You need to access the Windows Restore function to revert your computer to an earlier save point, so that whatever you did in CMD (someone must be laughing right now) will be undone (more than likely).
Restore will change the settings back, but will not affect your media or personal files, just the windows settings.
Click on your desktop in a blank space one time.
Then hit the "F1" key on your keyboard.
This will open help and support, under "pick a task" on the lower right, choose "undo changes to...."
Then choose a save point from before you messed with your computer, and it should go back to working fine.

If this is a Windows XP machine,
the best way out of this jam is system restore.
Turn that sucker back to a time before you started using cmd.
Go to start, then control panel
In control panel click on performance and maintenance.
Upper Left you will see system restore under see also.
Click on it.
Tell it restore my computer to an earlier time,
and pick a date and time before the event.
When you tell it OK, it will restart itself. This may take a few moments.
When the pc has restarted completely, you should get a window informing you whether or not the restore was successful.
Good Luck
I hope this helps

You should restore the computer to an earlier time when it was working properly.
I don"t know what you would do if you have Vista. If you have Window ME, or XP then go to the control panel and the Admin and chose the option to restore your computer.
Tell a date before you had a problem. It will reboot and when it goes on anything installed after that day will be removed. It usually works.

You probably downloaded a virus when you opened ''cmd'' because im sure its not the same cmd in Windows that opens up the command prompt. You should probably just format the drive and reinstall Windows.. If you need to save all your **** first, restart your computer, hit f8 every other second right when it comes back on until you get to advanced options menu. Pick safe mode and let windows boot. In safe mode you should at least be able to backup all your data first..

You will need to RESTORE your system to a previous point, a date before the date when you tried to hack into myspace.
Here's the detail:
There are three methods that you can use to access System Restore functionality.
You can access the System Restore Wizard through the Start menu. To access the System Restore Wizard, click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click System Restore.
You can access System Restore through Control Panel. To open the System Restore Wizard, click Start, click Control Panel, and then click Performance and Maintenance. Under See Also, click System Restore.
You can access System Restore through Help and Support Center. To access the System Restore Wizard, click Start, and then click Help and Support. Click Performance and Maintenance, click Using System Restore to undo changes, and then click Run the System Restore Wizard.
For more information about System Restore, see System Restore overview.

See if you can launch Word by double-clicking on a .doc file in a folder. If so, you can get most of your functionality back that way. Why your desktop (it seems) isn't working is another problem.
It would also behoove you to run your anti-malware defenses.

in case you have no longer something significant, purely reformat your computer to make certain there is not any malware on it. Or, ctrl+alt+delete and run activity supervisor. using a distinctive computer, google all the procedures working on your computer to locate the malware. happy looking!
