can't open / explore start menu folders

Problem: right-clicking on start menu folders and selecting either open,
explore, open all users, or explore all users does nothing (except making the
right-click menu disappear as it alwys does once you select an option). I'm
pretty sure the cause of this is my recnet installation of the .net framework
2.0 (usuing official DL from microsoft.com)

How can I repair this functionality?
I've found some tips on removing specific conflicting programs, but none of
them were relevant (the specified key didn't exist).

Click Start, click Run, type eventvwr.msc in the Open box, and then
press Enter.
Click the Application category.
