Hi folks lost my pin to task bar and start menu in the context menu and I looked around on the site to find a solution but to no avail. Any clues on how I might get these back, and I have no idea why there gone except for the fact that my wife was the last on my computer. We know how that is...:sarc:

If Brink's solution doesn't work you might want to consider a system restore to a point before the time your wife last logged on.
