When I have installed winedoors and steam and then reboot my computer my startmenu is broken.
The field to the right in the menu looks like this....
Could not load module: applications
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/linuxmint/mintMenu/mintMenu.py", line 229, in PopulatePlugins
MyPlugin = X.pluginclass( self, self.toggle )

tmp["cache"].addMenuEntries(menu.AppDirs)

Re: winedoors and starmenu
This should be solved by right clicking the menu > Reload plugins
If that does not help right click the menu > Remove from panel followed by Add to panel

Re: winedoors and starmenu
Sorry but none of the thing solve my problem.
When I add the menu I got the same error.

Re: winedoors and startmenu
Now I manage to see a startmenu.
I could not add mint startmenu but I add another one and this one is working.
Thanks for the help.

Re: winedoors and startmenu
I have seen this or very similar errors, but no solution
Have to search a bit more because I'm pretty much convinced I've seen the solution
You have found the gnome menu - you normally get it with Alt+F1 or possibly SuperL
I'll come back to you

Re: winedoors and startmenu
I've had this before. Whatever the corruption is it's somewhere in one of the configuration files in the home folder.

@ pluraldave
You got it!
One way of fixing this would be to mark mintMenu for complete removal in Synaptic and after that reinstall it
