Problems with desktop view in Safe boot

I am just going through the malware removal process detailed in the Techie section on here. It was all going well until i restarted in Safe mode as described.
On re start i was missing the left hand side of my desktop, including the start button and all my desktop icons?? I cant find how to change this to normal view?? I had to do a forced shut down using the on/off button and then system restore to get access to the icons etc again.

Can anyone advise what i can do to resolve this please.
Many thanks.
I save so I can spend.
