All of a sudden, the Remote Desktop Connection is missing from Accessories. I can't seem to find out how to reintall it nor how to run it without the shortcut. It's a brand new installation of xp Pro. I rememember seeing it this morning, but now it's vanished.

I have checked the windows directory and other user's profiles, but the shortcut is gone.
 
My shortcut shows the target as:
%SystemRoot%\System32\mstsc.exe

And "Start in:" as
%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%
 
Cool. I have the exe, but shortcuts have all disappeared. I created a new shortcut to that exe and have it working again, thanks!
 
That shortcut is in the All Users trunk of "C:\Documents and Settings"... delete it once, it's deleted for all users (I believe). Glad that helped.
