Hi all, I'm new here and I'm not much of a computer person. I have a start menu problem, and it's about to drive me insane. I can't search anything in the Start menu.
Then when I try clicking on it, this comes up.
Sorry is I posted this in the wrong section.
I just want to so it shows my documents, etc.

If you want to open files you have downloaded from the internet or from another computer, you have to change the security settings on the files;
Right click on the file and choose "Properties";
Now click on "Unblock" ( Lower right of the box after the warning).

No, I just want my documents and stuff to show up.
It's probably because the site that the file comes from has been identified by Windows as potentially dangerous. Windows uses security zones to determine whether or not a site is trusted. To learn more about trust and the Internet, see When to trust a website.
Windows assigns all websites to one of four security zones: Internet, Local intranet, Trusted sites, or Restricted sites. The zone to which a website is assigned specifies the security settings that are used for that site.
That's what it said.
For your first problem, star menu one, Reset the start menu settings by
Right click Start menu Orb -> Properties -> Start Menu -> Customize -> Use Default Settings. Done
For the second problem, Reset the Internet Explorer's settings to default
Open Internet Explorer -> Tools -> Internet Options -> Security -> Reset All Zones to Default Level.
Also Internet Options -> Advanced -> Reset.
None of your options helped.
I'm getting frustrated!
Where did you get your copy of win7 ? Have you installed any customs themes or done any regristry hacks ?
These things can be very frustrating. The nature of the beast.
OK. Download this and run it;
