Hi Jimmy :)

This might help you.

Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type regedit, and then click OK.
Locate and then click the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
In the right pane of Registry Editor, double-click Common Administrative Tools.
In the Value data box , type the following line, and then click OK:
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Administrative Tools
On the File menu, click Exit to quit Registry Editor.
Restart the computer.

Thank a lot your fix is perfect I had to do a few more registry adjustment on other strings as well as most of them started with %PUBLIC% instead of %ALLUSERSPROFILE% (The programe loaded no problem)
