"Unable to open desktop file...shut down the operating system before you launch
Notes again."

Recently a posted tip suggested that to restart Notes without having to reboot
the OS simply press <Ctrl<>Alt<>Del> select "Namgr" and click "End Task". The
authors tip was for Notes 4.6 Here is the same tip but for Notes R5 on Windows
95/98 machines. Press <Ctrl<>Alt<>Del> and select "Nhldaemn" and click "End
Task". Also if you had an instance of the Notes browser opened at the time of
the crash you will also need to select "Nweb" and click "End Task".

This will allow Notes R5 to restart without a reboot.
