| Start Menu keeps resetting upon restart I'm running Windows Vista. I've noticed everytime I restart or turn my computer back on the Start Menu section where it shows most recent programs or frequented programs is reset to default. I've cleared all programs from startup folder still everytime it resets the list to the following Windows programs: Windows Media Center, Media Player, Photo Gallery, DVD Maker, Calender and Meeting Space; along with the "Gateway Game Console" that came with the PC. I add my own programs to the list that I use most frequently but it clears them upon restart. Can anyone help? I appreciate it! |
