Windows Update Disappeared From Start Menu

[Mortimer Schnerd, RN]

Yesterday when I clicked on Windows Update, which I had pinned to my start menu,
I got a message saying the link couldn't be found. So I went to Help and
Support and found it there. How do I go about getting it back in my start menu?
It's no longer in Accessories/System Tools either.

Create a new shortcut and have it point to:

%SystemRoot%\system32\wupdmgr.exe

Drag the shortcut to the start menu and then pin it.

By golly, that fixed it. Thanks very much.
