It's been a while, but I eventually re-installed my OS and it fixed the problem, as expected. I also found out that WinaeroTweaker which I had used can indeed cause some problems. When I disabled UAC...

I tried that. Didn't help. I think maybe something broke when I used PartitionWizard? Although no errors occured. I also tried the regular index rebuilding, and tried changing the drive letters.

I just checked, actually, they are different.

Hi! I recently made some manipulations with my disks in PartitionWizard, copied one partition to another disk, then copied it back. Now, when I try selecting it in my indexing settings, windows...

Yes to all of your questions. I reset everything with the tweaking.com's repair tool. I had used some tweaksers, but I don't see anything that might have affected "new" menu.

I guess I'll have to...

Here's a screenshot from Shellmenunew:

And here's from New Menu Editor:

But no matter if I add or remove items from there, nothing changes.

I did all those manipulations with...

Yes, I've tried creating a new user - all the same. Those registry entries are exactly the same, I just checked. That tutorial, I also tried. Maybe there're some other registry entries that need to...

Ok, I managed to do an in-place upgrade after turning on Windows Update in the registry. It didn't help. What's next?

Yeah, I used the same Windows version.

I have a Pro version, I use it at home, and I had to disable windows updates through policies because of an error that prevented updating to a new version.

I did all that. Except I haven't tried installing from a media and clean install because it's complicated at the moment for me. I tried installing the same version I have now. Might it be caused by...

I see. Thank you very much!

Yeah, I've already tried that.

dalchina,

I wasn't able to complete the upgrade because an error occurred and the installation aborted:

Then the installation...

Okay, downloading the iso now. I tried creating a new user, it didn't help, so I should try this method, it seems. So it should preserve the apps and the application data?

Okay, I checked the disk, seems to be fine. Also tried the templates thing. But how to do that "in-place upgrade repair install" thing you mentioned?

dalchina,


I don't have any Restore Points or disk images.

Yes, it removes or adds back the menu, but that doesn't affect my problem.

How to do that?

I don't know.

dalchina,

None of that worked. Registry restoration did nothing. New menu editor shows all the default entries, but they are missing anyway. ShellMenuNew doesn't show any entries at all. I didn't...

For some reason, I don't have any entries in the "New" context menu anymore, I don't know what caused it. I've tried restoring default values in the registry, but it didn't help. Please help!
