Hi guys.
I just wanted to hide PC Settings from start menu and i have deleted the PC Settings shortcut from C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\, but the problem is that PC Settings from win8 charm doesn't work any more. I want to restore PC Settings, i don't want to hide it any more.
Can someone please give me that shortcut for Windows 8.1 ?
Thanks.

Select a system restore point prior to when you deleted the shortcut. Also run Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth in the elevated command prompt.

Do not be afraid of using a system restore point, it only undoes changes made from that point: Option 2 of this tutorial will help you, it does not affect your files.
