Today when I started up my computer, running win xp home,
and I go to the program folders on the program bar, many
show empty. The system tools is empty as well as Office
and Microsoft. I have run sfc from the original CD and it
found no problems. I have the settings set up to show
admin tolls and show all folders. The problem is just the
program bar being empty. All of the programs are there,
and If I go to the via My Computer everything will run
fine. Any ideas what has happened?
Thanks G
 
Are you referring to the area just to the right of the
Start Icon as the program bar? If so, right click in that
area, select Toolbars, and select Quick Launch.

If you are referring to the Start->Programs area, it could
be that the shortcuts to the programs were removed from
the folder. Just create new shortucts here: C:\Documents
and Settings\%user%\Start Menu\Programs

Hope one of these suggestions helps.
