Hello Chad and Ramesh.
Thank you both very much for (1) addressing this problem and (2) providing
an effective solution to it!
I too had the same problem where I would go to the "Start Menu" and click on
the 'Start" button with my mouse, then highlight the "Documents" or
"Settings" menu items, and when I tried to open up any of the sub-menu items
in both of those categories, the following would NOT work or open up: "My
Documents", "My Pictures", "Control Panel", "Network Connections", and
"Printers and Faxes". Only the "Taskbar and Start Menu" item worked.
Then I took Ramesh's excellent advice and downloaded "ShellExView". I ran
the program, followed his instructions, and now everything works! Thanks
again.
Sincerely,
Eugene Markow
