Hello everybody,
I would like to ask if there is any possibility of resetting the preffered applications menu to default. I was trying to add a Russian keyboard to my system the other day but I did something wrong and now my application menu shows only three options - Run, Settings and Sign off. I profoundly hope I got my problem across. I am new to Linux and still need get a hang of it.
Thank you __{{emoticon}}__

menu-applicatiions file is in /usr/share/icewm for icewm window manager which you are running.

Look in there and see if any are named old on the end or there is a duplicate. If so rename the current one with only the few entries and use your original. If no duplicate one there. Here is mine from my pastebin account.

Thank you. I am awfully sorry for a long lull in our conversation, but I have had a lot of on my plate lately and this problem slipped my mind, cause I can still start a few programs using Run command. Anyhow, I tried what you suggested but it is not working. I think I will have to resort to reinstalling the OS in the end.
