barzakh Posted January 20, 2002 Share Posted January 20, 2002 ok i've run into another problem. My run command is missing in the Start Menu. It's not even in the properties. Any ideas how can I get it back ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
correllium Posted January 20, 2002 Share Posted January 20, 2002 Are you using the classic start menu or the XP one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barzakh Posted January 20, 2002 Author Share Posted January 20, 2002 I've tried both..right now it's using XP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
correllium Posted January 20, 2002 Share Posted January 20, 2002 Did you already try this? Right click the start button, properites then customize. Then the advanced tab and the 4th thing from the bottom is "Run Command", make sure it's checked. You probably already did this though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fr33k Posted January 20, 2002 Share Posted January 20, 2002 do you have customizerxp? If you do then check to see if you checked "remove the run box from the start menu" gpedit.msc also has the remove the run box option maybe you can set it then unset it?

carpediem Posted January 20, 2002 Share Posted January 20, 2002 sounds like it's disabled in the group policy editor. try gpedit.msc and find it there. i know i disabled the run box from there once by mistake, but changed it back and i got it working again.
