| | Missing Progam Name in Start/All Programs My desktip pc's os is Windows Vista Home Basic. I installed Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007. The program name Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 is shown both under Start/All Programs list and also Start/Control Panel/Programs. I click on Start/All Programs and drag Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 to the desk to create shortcut. Later I find Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 program name has disappeared from Start/All Programs list. Then I know I make a mistake. I double check Start/Control Panel/Programs, and see the Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 remains there. A kind of releif. How do I add back Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 in Start/All Programs list ? Thanks |

Locate the Office folder and open (double click) it, then click edit/paste. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "smartsnake" <smartsnake@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:3749EE84-8DE9-40E6-8B7B-95A94EC15FEE@xxxxxx Quote: > > My desktip pc's os is Windows Vista Home Basic. > > I installed Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007. > The program name Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 is shown both > under > Start/All Programs list and also Start/Control Panel/Programs. > > I click on Start/All Programs and drag Microsoft Office Home and Student > 2007 to the desk to create shortcut.

| | Re: Missing Progam Name in Start/All Programs Hi Rick, I see Windows Explorer after typing Windows Explorer in Start Search. After clicking Windows Explorer, my Documents page opens. I only see My Downloads, My received Files, and My sharing Folders. I do not see Office folder and where can I find it. Kindly advise.
