6.9.10 update wiped out my programs

My laptop updated last night with 15 updates, then automatically turns off.  When I turned it on this morning, it was as if it was a brand new computer.  All my downloaded programs have disappeared, including Office 2007, Blackberry Manager, etc., etc.  All my backup files are left in the same way.

Is it possible to restore what I had before the update?  I'm not a computer guy so please, be gentle with your instructions.  Thank you.  Don

Click Start > computer > open your hard drive where Windows 7 is installed, and then Program Files to see if your applications are always there. Naviguer navigate in C:\Program Files to find the program (.exe), right click, select copy, navigate to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start start\program, right-click on an empty area in the window and choose Paste shortcut. This will give you the shortcut from the Start Menu (all program back).
