I've been updating my Inno Setup installs and I'm running into a situation where the Program Folder is not showing up in the Windows 7 Start > All Programs.
The wierd part is the program folder does exists in:
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
The other weird thing is if I do the following:
[click] Start
[right click] All Programs
[click] Properties
[click] Ok
Go back to Start > All Programs the Program Folder shows up.
Can you think of anything that will cause this behavior?
