neoform Posted January 13, 2006 Author Share Posted January 13, 2006 It's set to 3..personally i don't care about the missing "last used apps" bit.. it's the Programs Menu that i need access to.. i click on it and it just stares at me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPero Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Try Lite version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoform Posted January 18, 2006 Author Share Posted January 18, 2006 i uninstalled the regular version, then put the lite version in, worked great (again) for a few days.. then my "All Programs" stopped working again. No visual glitch this time, but when i click on "All programs" it doesn't bring up the menu. "Run" and "Search" show me an error "Windows cannot create a shortcut here. Do you want the shortcut to be placed on the desktop instead?". Weird.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPero Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Indeed...Try a registry repairing tool or something. I cant really give an explanation to this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francesco Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 I had this problem sometimes even when I didn't have xpize installed: probably it's a driver issue an application conflict or something like that. Try keeping xpize uninstalled and see if it happens again maybe it's not xpize's fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
