Hmm... just discover this !!


Wondering around the wonderful world of Internet I found the following
picture ---


http://www.microsoft.com/library/med...sing/accessibi...


Then I click the "Taskbar and Start Menu Properties" on my own PC and
found something really weird !


As you can see in the that picture at Microsoft, there are two items
under the "Start Menu" tab --


"Start menu"


and


"Classic Start menu"


Mine ... only the "Classic Start menu" appears !


What is going on???


How to make it so that my "Taskbar and Start Menu Properties" looks
like the one in the picture??


Please help.


It's a simple fix, though it does require making some changes in your
computer's registry. Make a backup of your registry before making any
changes just in case. If you don't know how to do that then read this
article: How to Backup and Restore the Registry.

Now to restore the Start Menu Go to Start = Run and type in "regedit"
{without the quotes}

Navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explor
er

In the right-hand pane, right-click on NoSimpleStartMenu and Modify its
Value to decimal 0 [dword:00000000]

Logoff and logon again (or restart) for the changes to take effect.
