It's one of my very few complaints about TDE. It seems to me that it must have something to do with the lower panel. (Or, for me it's the lower panel; I guess users can put it where they want, which sort of leads to the problems I just mentioned.) Whenever I unlock the lower panel, I tend to make whatever changes quickly, then lock it again immediately. Otherwise, I accidentally hit the wrong command (don't know what), or a click on something unintentionally (again, don't know what I do here), and next thing I know, the lower panel and its icons are all askew. The panel sometimes gets moved from the lower part of the screen to one side or another, which is really bad, maybe sometimes on top. And everything gets messed up, then I must spend some time putting everything right again. In order to make changes to the applications menu, you must unlock the lower panel; thus, I imagine, it's related to that issue about locking/unlocking the lower panel. I assume that we mean the same thing: the start menu button, and the list of applications that pops up when you click the start menu icon. If not, please correct me, as that's a separate issue. Anyway, at bottom, same problem, I think. I have whole categories (such as Internet) that have disappeared from my start menu. I have tried to replace them manually, tried to find some way to regenerate them, to restore them to their original state, but no luck.
