Re: Control Panel icon vanished

TweakUI hides control panel applets by adding entries to the registry
section: "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\don't load" - When you click
one to hide, a value/data pair is added, something like "ncpa.cpl=no".
When you re-check, it should remove it from the registry. You can look
to see if for some reason it is not removing it from the registry, and
manually delete the data/value pair if it appears. You can also look
under
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Control
Panel\don't load" to see if entries you want to see appear there.
