Hi guys, posting on behalf of my friend. She's just installed XP SP2 but since the install, she doesn't have a control panel anymore. I've asked her to go through the start menu and taskbar properties menu to try and put the control panel icon/menu back but she says there isn't any option to do so.
Any help appreciated. Thanks.

*Edit* No worries, got it solved for her now.

 

Run explorer and type 'control panel' into the address bar. Works for me, hope it works for you.
