Quick Launch items disappeared

Hey there.

I turned on the computer today, got to vista desktop, and noticed that none
of the items in the Quick Launch tool bar are there. I checked to see if it
was turned on, it looked like it was, but it was just empty. I opened the
foleder of the Quick Launch directory and it was empty too.

When i dragged the internet explorer link into it, it showed up in the Quick
Launch, but i do not know where to get the rest of the links that were there
(the defualt ones), like "show desktop" and the new "scroll through windows"
button.

Can anybody help me restore the default buttons or let me know where the
above mentioned programs are so that i can throw them into the quick launch?

Thanks a lot!

Hi Slawek,

You can copy the shortcuts from the Quick Launch folder of the Default User profile. More instructions available at:

Similarly you can restore the other shortcuts.
