Where has "run" run?

I had a tech over yesterday because of internet reception problems, he cured those and alos removed an unwanted program, by getting in and deleting it's keys via regiedit, I can't find the "RUN" command now, ought to be in accesories,right, not there. This joker knows his stuff so he would not hav deleted it, but I can't locatedit---I have also added a program or two to this group, how can I locate run?

Thanks,

Happy New Year

Cathy

Type in run in the start search area and then pin it to your start menu.

Right click taskbar > Properties > Start Menu > Customize. Scroll down to Run command and check its box > OK > Apply > OK . NOW, You should see the Run.... at the bottom of right shaded panel of Start menu

Run command

It is not pinnable to start menu from accessories or Start search. But it is an option.. in customizing start menu through taskbar properties menu. It has to be checked.

Run command

If you drag it out and then hit the windows key it will get pinned to the start menu.

Start menu disappears the moment you hit any key. I think the easiest way to make it appear in Start menu is just to check it in start menu properties as I outlined above.

If you want it in Start Menu, follow my outlined direction. Also this way, you learn how to tweak taskbar and start menu to customize.
