Thanks essex, I ran these programs, but haven’t done the start menus yet. There is a lot of damage, almost all of the All Programs ones are missing.

I think I’ve got a quicker way of doing it, I’ve got a program called SyncBack that compares the contents of drives and back them up and synch them. One difficulty is that the virus also seems to have damaged some data on G:

I have whatever that phobia is called about fear of losing data and do a weekly backup to a second external drive, which was not connected to the computer while it was infected. So I should be able to get the menus back to how they were a week ago.

Will let you know how it goes.
