Hello,
nearly every shortcut in the start menu doesn't work anymore. So, every time
I want to start a programm I have to open it directly in the explorer.

How can I fix this problem?

Cheers
Tom
 
This appears to be a bug... I've narrowed it down to programs that don't
have the exeacutable in the "target" field of the shortcut. Seems to only
affect the recently opened programs in the start menu. No fix as of yet, at
least from what I can tell from the boards. Keep asking though as this will
be the only way MS will fix it!

can't be a bug, just can't be.

even Bill gates said it:
"....- "Microsoft programs are generally bug-free. If you visit the
Microsoft
hotline, you'll literally have to wait weeks if not months until someone
calls in with a bug in one of our programs. 99.99% of calls turn out to
be user mistakes...." - Bill Gates.

ask any of the MVP's or their fanboys, if BG said it, it's gospel. right
Rich?

Yes, you are are right. I have the same issue with the executables in the
"target" field. Whom should I ask to fix it?

Hi,

You may try - Vista Start Menu -
http://www.vistastartmenu.com

This programs replace a start menu. I use it 8 month and very like it.

Thx, I tested your recommended programm. It's pretty good but the search
function is missing (or not working), thats why I love the original start
menu so much.
