Windows 7 beta build 7000. Using HP Pavilion dv9000, 64 bit proc and install, 4Gb ram. 7 has performed flawlessly until 2 days ago (no changes or new software has been added in the last 7 days preceding the problem). Start Button, All Programs, Accessories...only a few folders are left under accessories. Have no clue what happened to the programs etc. Maybe an update caused them to disappear? Any advice is welcome.
Solution
Make sure you have Show Hidden Files and Show hidden operating system Files are unchecked
Try looking under c:\users directory and verify that you have at least 4 "profiles
1. your name
2. All Users
3. Default
4. Default user
5. Public
The default profile should have the full start menu.
I can walk you through it if you need more help.
