Start Menu Is Empty!

[Melanie]

I downloaded a windows tweak toy and when using it, I
somehow erased all the shortcuts/ links in my start
menu. Is there any way to restore it without creating
shortcuts one by one? Any helpwould be great!

Melanie,

What "tweak" toy did you download? That would be helpful in assisting
you. Additionally, if it was TweakUI, and you used the My Computer, Special
Folders section to relocate your Start Menu, then the old shortcuts are in:

Documents and Settings\<your username>\Start Menu

Simply copy them to the location you moved the Start Menu to (right click
Start, and select Explore).
