Default Enable dragging and dropping box

My Windows XP home edition does not have the
Enable dragging and dropping box.

Here is the detail:

1. Right click the Start button and press Properties.

2. On the Start Menu tab, check Start menu and press the Customize button.

3. Select the Advanced tab.

4. Under Start menu items, there should be the Enable dragging and dropping box. But I do not have it.

I deleted some virus. I want to fix my Windows XP.

Please help me. Thank you a lot.

Default Enable dragging and dropping box

Unable to right-click on the folders or shortcuts in the Start Menu:
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/SMRightClick.htm

If the option Enable Dragging and Dropping is not available, it's due to a
policy setting. For stand-alone systems, try this:
Start Registry Editor and navigate to the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \
Policies \ Explorer
Backup the key to a REG file.
In the right-pane, set NoChangeStartMenu value to 0.
