Blank Administrative tools section

[Roy]

Hello group
I was examining the control panel of my new PC( albeit refurbished)
and found out that there is nothing in the administrative tools
section.

What I did is I clicked the control panel and switched to classic view
and when I clicked the administrative tools I can't find anything in
it.
Is this a normal or a worrying issue?
Thanks!
Roy

Thanks for your reply..
Do I have to install the admincontrolpanel.reg( which are registration
entries)?
What will be the effect on its installation...?

Follow the instructions for REG files at the top of the page
(http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm). Merging the file
admincontrolpanel.reg with your Registry will have the /affect/ of adding
Administrative Tools to the Control Panel list.
