    Removing dead icons from Start menu All Apps


    The tools from AcuraTML won't help you remove the dead icons but the method he suggested will and try to follow it to the letter creating another account and giving permissions to the folder he suggested and it should work as it worked for me

    Ahh thanks.

    I did end up just copying the edb file from the admin account... seemed to work fine!

    Was hoping there was a way to just repair my profile's file though but ah well, such is life.

    Thanks for the help *Smile
