Hi, I noticed the same when mine dissapeared. The best thing to do is to restore
your computer to an earlier system checkpoint. The system takes a snapshot of the
hard drive when it was last working OK. You will find this will rectify your problem
(it has mine on two occasions).
If you did not enable system restore, & keep it up to date with the microsoft update
you might find that the only other way is to backup your system & re-install.
