[EXPLORER] Check registry key for default shell (#7502)

Improves detection of Explorer being the default shell.

- Check the "Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" key to see if Explorer is the default shell.
- Use this check to determine whether to start the desktop and taskbar or only open a file browser window.
