"All Programs" button on task bar does not open when clicked. How do I fix?
Prior to this happening, I did the following:
In ADD/REMOVE Programs, I uninstalled Encyclopedia Britanica and Smart Draw
programs.
I attempted to restore system to point prior to this change, but still no
results.
Before I make mess, I thought I would ask.
Thank you in advance.

Hmm....you shouldn't have to click to open it. Have you tried hovering
over it for an extensive period of time? Computers with many
applications/slow processors might have trouble loading the start menu.

Processor fast enough. I have tried hovering over it for an extensive period
of time, still no response. I must have done something when I removed two
programs, I just do not know what.

Benisto,

See if this helps.

Start Menu - 'All Programs' is empty or nothing happens when you click the
menu:
