Some items in Start Menu > Accesories folder disappear. Please hel

[Guest]

Hi, you all know the default items in the accessories folder and such right?
Well, all of a sudden, Command Prompt disappeared, along with some other
items. I think some Ease of Access tools have disappeared too, unless Speech
Recognition is the only one, I can't remember. This has happened to me
before, and since I'm so OCD about having a perfect Vista installation, I
performed a fresh format to fix the problem. I don't want to do this again.

Please help me out.

Hi Goose II,

Running "sfc /scannow" (no quotes) in a elevated command prompt should
restore you default Start Menu shortcuts. See this link for details.

Well, I scanned but it didn't fix my Start Menu. Still, I'm happy now that I know a good command to run every once in a while just in case.

Rather than a fresh format, try making a New User account in Control
Panel\User Accounts, copy the shortcuts that you want from C:\Users\New
User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu, and then delete the
account.
