I've lost the Microsoft Word Document from the Right Click/New menu

[Johnny Eager]

I don't know how it happened, but when I right click on the desktop and go
to the New menu, the option for "Microsoft Word Document" is missing. I use
it quite a bit and I would like to get it back. Any suggestions?

Thank you very much,

je

Do you have TweakUI?

If so, did you uncheck Microsoft Word Document under Templates? Then add it
back.

If not, then get TweakUI....

Tweak UI
This PowerToy gives you access to system settings that are not
exposed in the Windows XP default user interface, including
mouse settings, Explorer settings, taskbar settings, and more.

Version 2.10 requires Windows XP Service Pack 1 or above or Windows
Server 2003.

Scroll down the right hand side and look for...
Tweak UI
TweakUI.exe

TweakUiPowertoySetup.exe is what you get.

If you have Windows XP without any Service Packs, download Version 2.00.
