Where should default "start menu" folders be found? Found a "start menu" folder sitting on my vista ho-prem's (SP1 w/x86) desktop. Aside from there, I have four others at... c:\windows\serviceprofiles\networkservice\appd ata\roaming\microsoft\windows\start menu c:\windows\serviceprofiles\localservice\appdata \roaming\microsoft\windows\start menu c:\users\steven\appdata\roaming\microsoft\win dows\start menu c:\programdata\microsoft\windows\start menu If my touchpad, which has been causing issues, didn't result in rogue "start menu" folder inadvertently having been drag-drop- copied to the desktop, short of missing a default located start folder, I don't have any other explanation (save virus or malware, all but impossible given safe browsing, etc.).
