Please help! I recently uninstalled ClassicStartMenu (I think that's what it's called.) and now my start menu looks like a blank background with no programs etc. What can I do to get my old start menu back?

Hi and welcome to Geeks to Go! :)

Use System Restore to roll your computer back to when it was functioning properly.
  • Go to Start > Control Panel > System and Security > System > Advanced System Settings (on the left). Click on the System Protection tab.
  • Click on System Restore to open the restore program.
  • Click Next.
  • You will have an option to Select A Restore Point. From here, select a date a couple of days before the problem started.
  • Click Next.
  • On the Confirm Restore Point Selection window, verify the Restore Point you chose is correct.
  • Close all open programs and click Next.
  • The computer will now automatically shut down and reboot. When it restarts you will see a ”Restoration Complete” page. Click OK.
  • Once you have made sure that everything is now running correctly, please reply back with the results.

Okay, I didn't want to have to go through with the system restore (I was going to if this didn't work out) but instead I reinstalled ClassicStartMenu and then re-uninstalled it. (Confusing huh?) I think what happened was I uninstalled the program and Revo didn't get all the files the first time. Whether my assumption is true or not, it worked and the start menu is back to shape. Thanks for the help.

Glad to hear this issue has been resolved. :)

Cheers! If there's anything else I can do, please don't hesitate to ask; just make sure to start a new thread in the appropriate forum. :)
