    Thank you Joel S. Before I could put your advice into practice a friend recommended a friend who advised me to do a system restore, which he said he would be happy to do it for me. So look like an easy option, I agreed. It seems to have solved the problem (fingers crossed), but now it seems that I need to format the hard drive. If you have any tips on formatting hard drive I'm all ears. Thank you Owen

  • Why are most of my grayed out icons and my programs do not appear in all programs on the start menu?

    My computer crashed the other day. I returned with a system restore. I have scanned for viruses. Now most of my icons (computer desktop and folders) is grayed out. When I click on "all programs" in the start menu, none is listed even though they are still on my computer and still work.

  • Windows XP SP3. Space above the start menu is empty, some programems wont shortcuts or all programs.

    Recently installed Office 2010, but need technical assistance. Tech has created a new user account 'my computer', but on my screen to connect normal admin, space in the start menu above all rest programs empty. In addition, some desk top of page shortcuts will not run, no programs will work directly from the main menu.  Additionally, Windows update will not work. Outlook will start the new screen of the computer user, but not my normal log on screen.  I tried a number of alternative, none succeeded.  It seems that the fundamental problem is the connection to my main user on screen log has somehow been disconnected and I'm unable to re-establish the connection. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you.

  • How to get all the programs in the Start Menu is displayed as a cascading menu

    Is there a legitimate way to get the menu all programs in the Windows 7 Start Menu to display a menu cascading (WinXP style)?

    I've seen many references to various malicious programs to download from the internet who hack into the start menu to provide this functionality, but I'm not interested in executing random programs from the internet.

    If there is no legitimate way to do this in Windows 7 right now, is it possible to add this in the future Microsoft? The current implementation of menu "scroll of the trees" is really annoying. :-(

    Hi Ghaz78

    There is unfortunately no way to do this without using a replacement of the third party.

    One of the most popular workarounds must simply turn on the Quick Launch bar. You can put the toolbar QL next to the Start Menu and then copy the folder of programs (all programs) on this toolbar that will give you the cascading effect.

    See the post below for the steps to add the QL toolbar.

    Bar to complete tasks

    Once this done, go to Start, then right-click all programs , and then selectopen all users. This will take you to the folder C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start start\program . This is the location where the shortcuts that appear in all the user accounts, theall programs folder.

    Copy this folder in: C:\Users\your name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

    Go toStart, all programs right click and select Open. This will take you to the
    Record of C:\Users\your start\program name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start.
    This is the folder where shortcuts that appear only in the all programs to your specific user account folder is located.

    Copy this folder in:C:\Users\your name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

    Quite.

    I hope this helps.

  • Missing programs in all programs on the start menu in Windows 7

    I have Windows 7 Home Premium SP 1 installed on my laptop. In recent weeks, I noticed that a lot of programs have disappeared from all programs in the start menu. If I dig up the program on my HARD drive so I'm able to find but it causes a lot of problems that the programs are not visible in all programs. Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for the reply!

    Yes, I had most of the programs listed in there, but some programs were missing...
    Such as PowerPoint and Word, etc were missing from the list of all programs...
    So what I did that I dragged the original MS Office program into the specified folder...
    I guess that is not automatic!

  • Folder icon in all programs on the start menu

    I tried to change the icons of the folders in all programs on the start menu. But after that, it has been restored. Nothing is left.

    Hoping that windows can automatically display the icons of the programs installed on these files.

    Hello

    I understand that you want to change the icons of folders in the files shows all programs menu.

    You can change the icons of folders which are displayed in the file Explorer, but these changes will not be reflected in the access to the start menu.

    However, you can use some 3rd 3rd party apps that can help you to do the same.

    Note: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

    Please refer to the article below for more information on the option of customization available in Windows 7:

  • Cannot open all programs on my desktop or in the start menu.

    Original title: my programs are not open, they are turning to outlook to open each

    I can not open all programs on my desktop or in the start menu. The icons have changed to resemble the outlook icon. Even when I try to open Outlook it gives me a message command line argument is not valid. I can however some programs work but I need to open a file within the program.

    This can happen if your file associations are broken.  Here's how to restore correct file associations.

    1. Press + R to display the run box, type RSTRUI and click OK.
    2. Choose a date when the computer was working properly, and then click on next to restore system files from that date.  The computer will restart with the fixed parameters.
  • How can I change the start menu to view all default programs?

    Hello

    There is no way to display the menu all programs when you click on the Start button. Start is similar to a toolbar. When you select it, it will show all the different components that you can access.

    You can stop the recent programs to display. Right-click the Start button and select Properties. In the privacy section, Remove the check mark from the option store and display recently opened programs in the start menu .

    I hope this helps.

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not see Desktop Manager in my list of all programs on the start menu

    I just installed the Blackberry Desktop Manager for Blackberry 7100i Nextel (version 4.1.0.376).

    It does not appear under all programs on my Winxp start menu.    It seemed to install correctly, but it just doesn't appear in the start menu.    I removed it by following the instructions (requiring the removal of certain registry entries and files and more using Add/Remove programs in the control panel).

    I reinstalled the program and it will not always be displayed on the start menu.    I can run a couple of .exe files and run it manually, but I don't get the full program.

    I am the administrator of my pc Windows XP Professional.

    Any ideas on what could be the problem?

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    Yes, that would do makes a difference. For reference, the best procedure must first install the full package of DTM (what version you need for your PIM version if you plan to synchronize via attached USB/BT), then, at the top of the DTM installed, your bundle of BONES of carriers (which modifies DTM so that it can provide you with options that apply to you).

    You can edit your previous post - but it's actually better not unless there is a real error needing correction. It is good to leave the wire in place just in case someone in the future should have a similar situation... so that they can find your description and solution and I hope to find their response without the need to post a new thread.

    Oh yes, once you are sure that it is resolved, please don't forget to mark the thread as solved.

    Best!

    How to stop windows 7 to change the list of all programs on the start menu?

    Is it only occurs for the shortcut of CyberLink, or perhaps for each shortcut where you changed a location?

    You can check this: Start > right click on all programs > you can select Open and open to all users > you can check is not listed in the two location?

    Shortcuts usually appear at the previous location after a few updates to the specified application.
