Default Windows Update Shortcut


I accidentaly deleted the startmenu shortcut for Windows Update, and i really
want to get it back the way it was when i first installed windows Vista, with
correct target, start in, comments, date created/modified etc, just like what
Vista installed with. (I am one of those meticulous people) Is there any way
to have Windows put back the shortcut for Windows update(like doing a windows
update repair). My last resort is to create my own custom shortcut for it,
but i'll need to know what all its attributes are to type in. Any help would
be appreciated.

Oh, I guess that you can't actually have attachments on MS Communities.
Want to give me an email address? Or better yet, if you email me,
sbberube@cfl.rr.com, I can reply with the shortcut file. I'll get it to
you.
