i ran ccleaner on my windows xp pro x64 edition pc and i lost a bunch of short cuts, like: disk management, defrag, windows update...
i can get to these things in the round about way but the short cuts are gone. i did back up the registry entries when prompted, but the short cuts did not come back when i restored the reg entries.
any ideas?

CCleaner doesn't totally support 64-bit OSes yet.

Check out this post for more information.

Give Andavari lots of money and maybe even consider getting K a DVD-RW drive.
