In XP in the All Programs Listing, I show no entries
above accessories. I was looking for the entry Windows
Updates which is in this section. How can I recall these
entries ?
Thank You

Go to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu. Right click in the
right pane and select New, Shortcut. Name it Windows Update and use the
following command line:
%SystemRoot%\system32\wupdmgr.exe

James,
Just right click on the Desktop, select New, Shortcut. The first thing it
asks for is the command line. Give it
%SystemRoot%\system32\wupdmgr.exe
for this. The next thing it asks you for is the shortcut name. Call it
Windows Update. Then you can copy this shortcut to the folder mentioned
before.
