Ultimate nuclear option is of course to use the !ResetBoot utility in 
$.Utilities.Caution on your harddrive.

This resets everything back to normal so you loose all your 
configuration but it does backup your existing choices directory with 
!Boot but you will have to spend time re-installing/re-configuring 
things

Suggest this is only used as a last resort if you can't get any 
further using !Reporter to find the issue and i would also make a full 
backup of !Boot just in case before using.
