• How to rebuild the Windows 7 start menu?

  Having had a virus and deleted successfully, I find myself with a strange problem.

  The virus, among other things, seems to have changed the menu start removing the 'pinned' programs is not a problem, but also remove the contents of the folders in "all programs", for example under "Microsoft Office" is a subfolder called "office tools" (empty), but nothing else.
  All programs are always there and the work that they are not available on the start menu. There must be a way to rebuild this menu without having to reinstall each of the very many pieces of software on the computer.

  Suggestions welcome.

  Common to all users start menu is C:\users\all users\microsoft\windows\start menu.
  For each menu C:\users\username\appdata\roaming\Microsoft\window s\start user.
  By default, these are hidden files.
  Open Windows Explorer and create shortcuts, copy, paste etc.

Can someone please tell me, how to remove the full backup.

  Hi kisna234567,

  ·         You get the error message?

  The main objective of the Windows backup and Restore Center is to save the data either automatically in according to the schedule or manually when you want to save data. It is not designed to replace the old data with the new data. Just backup and Restore Center totals with new data every time, and would not remove the old files.

  You can backup the old files and folders to storage device as the external hard drive, CD, DVD, USB flash drives and removes the backup files of the computer. You can format the backup partition.

  Caution:

  ·         Formatting a volume will destroy all data on the partition. Be sure to make backups of all the data to save before you begin.

  ·         You cannot format a disk or partition that is currently in use, including the partition that contains Windows.

  ·         Quick format is a formatting option that creates a new file table, but do not completely overwrite or erase the volume. A quick format is much faster than a normal format, which fully erases the existing data on the volume.

  Follow these steps:

  (a) open computer management by clicking the Start button, select Control Panel, click system and Maintenance, click Administrative Toolsand then double-click computer management. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  (b) in the Navigation pane, under storage, click disk management.

  (c) right click on the volume that you want to format, and then click format.

  (d) to format the volume with the default settings, in the format dialog box, click OK, and then click OK again.

  For reference: create and format a hard disk partition.

• the Windows 7 start menu as a menu display does not respond when selected

  original title: windows 7 start menu - display as a menu broken

  When you customize my Start menu in Windows 7, I chose to 'Display as a Menu', as many items as I could.  It worked well for a while, but now is broken. Now, if 'Display as a Menu' or "Display as a link" is chosen, I have to click the item to open it.  I tried to change it back in 'menu' to 'bind', I tried choose "display only" and then back to "view in the form of a menu, I rebooted. I changed the delay of menushow definition in the registry by default 400 for as little as 20.  All to nothing does not.  Any ideas?

  FYI for those who might encounter the same problem... found an easier solution.  I just put the menu start failing. The button is at the bottom of the start menu.

• The Windows 7 Start Menu search / indexing nothing works! Tried everything!

  OK Ive spent countless hours of research on this question, ive tried many "bugs" that did not work at all. I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit Edition and here is my problem:

  The search for the Start Menu in windows 7 does not show ANYTHING when I type something to search for. No category, no file, no folder, nothing. The only thing that appears is "See more results" at the bottom and everything else is empty. When I click on "See more results" I get an error saying that windows cannot find the search query

  WHAT IVE TRIED:

  Ive tried to rebuild the index - always says 0 indexed items and NEVER changes, Ive tried to manually change the location of the index, same result

  Ive tried deleted manually the former location of the index, stop the search function, from the search function (both in the options and in regedit), restart the computer and still nothing.

  Ive tried Backing removed all find Regkeys, stop manually search in the command prompt, location of the Delete index into the command prompt, restart the search function in the command prompt.

  Ive tried to do an in Place Upgrade / repair installation of Windows 7 but he's always said his failure and returned to my current installation of WIN7

  Ive double checked to ensure that all my regkeys have the correct values and I have all the correct regkeys

  After all that, nothing WORKS STILL! -Yes research is Active, yes the file indexing and drive is chosen correctly, and yes the Search Options for files and folders ARE set up.

  Ive seen 3 other emails of Micrsoft argue that users have posted, some people say it arranges, it does NOTHING for me. I always have this problem.

  Please, please help me with this, if anyone can help me, you have no idea how much I appreciate it!

  I don't know what caused it, but this problem fixed the original problem and you describe for me:

• I want to go back to the Windows 7 start menu version. How can I do?

  Original title: Windows Start menu 8

  I don't like the Start Menu on Windows 8 and want to return to the version of Windows 7. How can I do?

  Hello

  Which is actually not so easy... especially if Win 8 has been pre-installed...

  You almost buy Windows 7, or reinstall your pre-installed WINDOWS 7 If you have.

  Even this may be a trick, because the installation of Win 8 probably messed up the process to make...

  If you needed to restore to factory records, you might be lucky...

  Another option would be to install something like the classic interface (free) or debut8 ($4.99).

  Personally, I use debut8... for the most part, that you will think you are running Win 7 and still have features to win 8 If you want to use them...

  I never tried the classic shell because I used a free trial of debut8 first. I decided it was well worth $ 5 and never studied further.

• Need help with the Windows Vista Start Menu

  So, I turned on my computer today and clicked on the start menu, I expanded the tab all programs and was shocked to see that it was empty. Tab Assecories, Extras and upgrades, games, all of them, all tabs have disappeared. Is any way to restore? I don't know how to get to the Defrag disk or cleaning disc or one of these things without it. Help, please!

  -Tim

  A plus for you to try.

  It still happens today. Yes?

  Why not do a system restore.

  Choose 2 days ago, or a date then your list of all the programs worked as your restore point.
