At first i thought the utility had somehow deleted all of my Start Menu items, but that was not the case. Items could still be searched for and launched that way in the start menu, but not browsed for by clicking All Programs.

I found this post over at Greg's Cool Thing of the Day blog which describes a "fix" (moving some of the items into one or more ) which worked perfectly, and all of my Start Menu items have returned.

Thanks, Greg!
