upon re-installing windows 7, in this case because I have a new motherboard and cpu, do my programs appear in the start menu if I save all of the data in the program files and program data folders? If so, do I need to save both folders? If not, which one? If neither, which folders can I save, if any, to keep my programs in the start menu? I imagine that if I put them in the start menu folder that I can keep my programs in the start menu, but I am not sure and I don't know where to find the correct folder. Also, how can I keep all of my current programs installed that are already installed? Is just keeping the data in the program files and program data folders ensure that I can keep them already installed when I start to upload my backed up data? What can I do with the Windows.old folder?
