    All Programs List is Empty in Windows 7

    Windows 7 All Programs Menu Empty (when folders and/or icons exceed 70+ items)

    Source (http://coolthingoftheday.blogspot.com/2009/05/story-of-windows-7-and-empty-all.html)

    Windows 7 doesn’t currently like having too many shortcuts/folders in the Start Menu/Programs folder. With something close to 70+’ish shortcuts/folders in the combined All Users & User Start Menu/Program folders (common in an upgrade scenario) the All Programs list will end up being blank/empty

     

    Resolution:

    Move a number of shortcuts/folders from Start Menu/Programs into a new subfolder, like Start Menu/Programs/Stuff, and then restart Windows Explorer. Wash, rinse, repeat until your All Programs works.

    Quick Resolution Walk Through:

    Disclaimer: This is what worked for me, on two systems. Your mileage may vary. You do this at your own risk and while this should not break your system (nor is it really even dangerous), take care and do it slow. You assume all the risk and liabilities in this process and I assume none (i.e. don’t blame me if you jack up your system). This resolution is provided as a good faith effort to help, yada, yada, yada..

    a) Left click on the Windows orb to open the Start Menu

    b) Right click on the All Programs. You should see a menu like the one pictured below

    c) Left click on the Open menu item (aka the current user’s, yours, Start Menu). You should see something like what is pictured below, though the actual contents may be a little different

    d) Double left click on the Programs folder. You should see something what is pictured below, though the actual contents will be different, you should see a “bunch” of folders

    e) Create a new subfolder called “Stuff” (no quotes, and you can name it what ever you really want too)

    f) Select a bunch of the folders/shortcuts and drag (i.e. move) them into “Stuff”

    Windows 7 Search Ferderation….A BIG WOW!

     

    Just take a look at the screenshots and will understand what I mean. From within the Windows Explorer one can search for stuff locally or from the Internet.

    Windows7-Search-Federation1

    There are already a handful of providers (Search Federation Providers) written out there such as the ones I found in SevenForums.com (Google News, Google Blogs, Flickr, MSN,…)

    And it is very simple to create one yourself, just take a look at the code (found in SevenForums.com):

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <OpenSearchDescription xmlns="http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/" xmlns:ms-ose="http://schemas.microsoft.com/opensearchext/2009/"> <ShortName>Sevenforums</ShortName> <Description>OpenSearch SevenForums via MSN using Windows 7 Search.</Description> <Url type="application/rss+xml" template="http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q={searchTerms}+site%3asevenforums.com&amp;num=10&amp;format=rss"/> <Url type="text/html" template="http://search.live.com/results.aspx?q={searchTerms}+site%3asevenforums.com&format=rss"/> </OpenSearchDescription>

    Visit http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/742-windows-7-search-federation-providers.html and follow a 3 simple steps to creating your own search provider (a .osdx file)
