Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

I accidentally hid all my programs

    I'm not quite sure how I did it but now none of my programs are showing up under start > all programs. There are still some short-cuts on the desk top that work but the icons are faded out. The programs are still installed I just can't get to them. I have looked under tools>files of the c drive and the show all hidden folders option is ticked. I really don't want to have to uninstall and re-install everything, does any one know how to get them back?

    Sounds like you set the hidden attribute on the shortcuts to true.

    Go to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs and right click on the shortcuts, select "properties" and make sure that the hidden option is not selected. You might have to do the same at C:\Documents and Settings\Your Username\Start Menu\Programs.

    Did you delete the folders irlrobins mentions above by accident? If so recover them from the recycle bin.
