Problems with Start - Programs menu

Hi,

Since few days, i have no contents in the Start -> Programs menu. Curiously,
if i do right click over Programs menu, the Windows Explorer display really
this contents, but into Start -> Programs not appearing nothing (look the
attached image), only the word (Empty). Any screen resolution change, the
menu contents reappear without problems... but when i restart the account
session, the results is another time empty contents.

The re-register of the Shell32.DLL Library (regsvr32 /i Shell32.DLL), not
obtain positive results.

Any solution?...

Greetings,


Carles

Hi Carles,
