>Hi,

I'm having the same problem. I spent two hours with
Microsoft support on the phone and they didn't have a
clue. The knowledge base article that almost every one
references is completely worthless because , as you and I
have discovered, the User Shell Folder does not contain
the Common Administrative Tools subkey. My search on
Google shows that this has been an ongoing problem for
well over a year and maybe longer. I think it is a
scandal that Microsoft hasn't addressed this problem by
this time. If you have any ideas I would love to hear
them.
