Windows Explorer missing from Accessories

[Guest]

Hello,
When I click on Start and then on Programs and Accessories, the
Windows Explorer is not there. How can I get it back on the Accessories? I
am running Windows XP, any help would be appreciated....

Thanks,
Bob

Hello Bob

You just need to replace a shortcut that has gone astray

Right-click on the Start button and click on Open; that will take you to
your Start Menu folder. Navigate to Accessories by double-clicking the
Programs folder, then the Accessories folder.

Now right-click on a blank area of the window and select New > Shortcut.
The wizard will pop up and ask you for the name of the file. Type:

C:\Windows\explorer.exe

and click Next. In the name field change the name of the shortcut to
Windows Explorer if it isn't already suggested, then click Finish.
You're done

Hope this helps.
