Adminstrative tools [JSF]

My administrative tools folder is suddenly empty, how can I safely restore
this. Doing a system restore is not an option, as that is not working.

Some Windows Vista functions may not work, or Windows Vista may stop

Thank you, this did exactly what you said it would. Sadly, I am replacing
my "E" drive with a larger drive, and I want it be "E" - apparently I need
the "Computer Management" administrative tool, and it did not restore that
one. Can someone assist in manually adding it to the folder, or at least my
desktop.

Thanks

Joe

First off, there are other ways of running the Computer Management console. The
easiest is to right click on My Computer and select Manage from the menu. Or you
could go to Start - Run and enter compmgmt.msc in the Open box.

If you want a shortcut in the Administrative Tools folder, do the following.

Right click on an open spot in the folder and select New - Shortcut from the
menu.
Copy and paste the following command into the location box.

%SystemRoot%\system32\compmgmt.msc /s

Hit the Next button.
Name your new shortcut Computer Management and hit the Finish button.

Good luck
