Well curiouser and curiouser (as the Walrus said to Alice).

I have original Windows Vista Business edition fully registered with Microsoft and have been operating it for several months. However the Windows Fax and Scan does NOT appear in the Programs menu as is stated in the help files. I also went in to check which windows programs were activated and found that Windows Fax and Scan was active in the listing, but still did not appear on the menu. So I deactivated it (unchecked/unticked it) then OK, then went back in and reactivated it (then reboted machine as well).

Still no sign of it on the menu. Searched for it in the help, and search areas, no joy other than the normal "You will find it on the all programs menu"

Then out of frustration went to the control panel and did a search on scan. Lo and behold under Control Panel Home, search on Scan, up pops "Scanners and Cameras" with 2 chouces "Scan a document or picture" amd View scanners. Selected Scan and found Windows Fax and Scan!!

It's still not on my menu, and I cant seem to get it there not no-how (Tom Sawyer?), but a long as I can remember to jump through all these hoops, then I can find it again hopefully. What a Pain in the neck!!!!!

Does anyone have a clue as to how I can locate "WFS.EXE" (as I think this was the program running) and pin that to the menu. It doesnt appear on searches under C: all folders.

Any other ideas as to how to get Fax & Scan on to the menu where it should be?

Thanks all!
