As I've already tried the steps recommended by "Ramesh, MS-MVP" neither of
which worked, I am still looking for an answer that might! I find it strange
that Ramesh thinks that the accessories group is not usually displayed in the
start>all programs menu. Because if it is not supposed to be there (a) why
does Microsoft have an article giving you one way to try to fix the problem?
(b) Why does he include a link to a program that's supposed to fix it? And
(c) how come it WAS displayed in my start>all programs menu since I first
installed XP Pro in 2004 right up until I formatted my HDDs and did a fresh
installation of XP Pro a couple days ago - on 17 February 2006?

So if you have any other suggestions that might fix the problem of the
accessories group disappearing from the start>all programs please reply???
