• "All programs" list empty

  Yesterday, I noticed that when I click on "All programs" in the Start Menu, there are all the programs listed. I can still access all of C:\Program Files, so I know that I've accidentally deleted all the programs. Is it possible to restore them to "all programs"? Attached is a link to my "All programs" list look like now.

  Hi LisaEB,

  1. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

  It seems that if you have something close to 70 or more shortcuts/folders in the all users folders & Start Menu/user combined program, the list of all programs will eventually be empty or empty. Check the number of recent programs that can be displayed in the Start Menu.

  Method 1:

  a. click Windows orb to open the Start Menu.

  b. right-click on all programs, and then select open.

  c. double-click the folder programs. There should be a list of folders.

  d. create a new folder.

  e. Select a bunch of files in the folder programs and drag the folders to the new folder.

  f. restart your computer and check if the programs are shown when you click on start > all programs.

  g repeat the above steps until the list is displayed in all programs.

  Method 2:

• Delete an EMPTY FOLDER in the all programs list.

  SuperAntiSpyware uninstalled from my computer. Now, the name appears in the list of programs, when you click on the Start button.

  I can't find out how to remove the empty file with the name of SuperAntiSpyware.

  Thanks guys...

  What happens if you right click and select "remove from this list"?

  The above is that if you have a shortcut for SuperAntiSpyware in the main part of the start menu.  If you mean that when you click on "All programs" you still see a folder named "SuperAntiSpyware" then open Windows Explorer and navigate to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start start\program and delete the folder "SuperAntiSpyware".

• Start button all program list

  How can I add folders to the list of "All programs" under the Start button when they are not displayed, but are in the list of program files in Windows Explorer on the hard drive?

• All programs list - moved shortcut on the desktop, but want to add back to the list of all programs

  I moved a shortcut from the list of all programs on the desktop.  I would like to keep the shortcut on the desktop, but also restore on all programs.  How can I do this?  I tried drag-and-drop and Windows Explorer without success.  Topic is not found in help.  Windows XP Professional SP3.

  the visual office includes folders and you can copy the shortcut via Solution Explorer.

  simply right-click on the Start button and select open.

  Explorer opens on the behalf of users.

  If you look closely, you will see a folder called desktop.

  find the shortcut, then copy.

  Find the folder of programs all then drill down to the subfolder you want and paste the shortcut in him.

  You can also use the above method to organize your desktop.

  Incidentally, do not play with the admin folder or all users.

• All programs list

  Go to the Start button, selecting programs all does list all programs, about 8 of them.  How to get back my list of programs?

  Usually, this happens because a piece of malware hides the shortcuts in the "All Users" folder.
  As an administrator user, follow these steps to display all shortcuts or folders that have been hidden:

  1. Bring up a command prompt window (start-> Run-> "cmd") or (Windows key + R-> "cmd")
  2. Enter the following command at the command prompt:

     attrib "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Menu Menu\Programs\*.*" h / d/s

     (be sure to include the quotation marks)

  3. This should display hidden entries in your Start menu.

  Also, it wouldn't hurt to run a Malware scan on your computer.  A free program is MalwareBytes

• Start in &#62; all programs displays of empty program files

  Hi - I hope someone can help me. I searched and found others who have had the same problem but no one has released a fix to work for her.

  I got a virus last week that hid all the icons on my desktop and in my Start menu in my C: drive. I deleted the virus and was able to restore my desktop icons, drive C: and Menu master boot successfully, but I still have a problem. When I click on "All programs", my program files appear, but they are all empty. Programs are always installed, but for some reason, they do not appear when I click on the folder in the start menu > all programs. I can't do a restore system - the virus deleted my restore points as well. Is there a way I can rebuild my Start menu without having to do a reinstall full? I tried to create a new user profile, but the problem exists in the new profile as well.

  I can run programs if I type in the correct .exe file in the search at the bottom of my Start menu bar (for example, iexplore.exe), but if I just type the name of the program, search does not find it. When I click on start > all programs, it seems normal at first, but if I click on a folder (such as Microsoft Office), it just says: (empty) under the name of the folder.

  I am running Windows 7 Home Premium. I checked that there is no virus on my computer by running MalwareBytes and SuperAntiSpyware in safe mode, run the Avira rescue disk.

  Folder options are checked to show hidden files and folders, so that's not all.

  Thank you!

  If you place the cursor over the menu start all the entry of programs then right click & select open and then again to select open all users, shortcuts appear in the files that open upwards [i.e. just are we discussing their appearance in the menu programs all]?

  If the shortcuts are here [I'm just a little hesitant about the meaning of what you have written before], then you might just get away with running the System File Checker.

  I always agree with well Dissed - that the virus could hide here all the time since the last attack.  If all goes well, there is a good guide to the procedures for removal of malicious software by SpiritX in How to remove spyware from the computer , it will prevent a determine of this infection.

  Good luck with this annoying problem.

• Organize the all programs list in group folders

  Up to Windows 7, I could combine my programs in the list of all programs into folders (such as 'Software Development Apps' or 'Windows Apps').  But I'm not (so far) able to do this with Windows 7 and my programs list is too big.  Is there a way to group applications in Windows 7?

  Hi Dcowan,

  ·         What happens when you try to drag and drop programs in the folder?

  Personally, I tried to consolidate programs in all programs in Windows 7 and I was able to do the same.

  You should be able to do the same thing.

  You can select the program in all programs, drag the program to the necessary folder where you want to add and drop.

  Thank you, and in what concerns:
