I have a few computers on my network that do not have the Run command when I click on the Start Button.

What's the problem? Solution?

What Operating system?
Are you running policies?
If you are running XP with no policies. Right click on start-->select properties-->Select coustomize-->Select advanced-->in the list of startup items you will find a selection for Run.

** if you dont always need the run command in the startup menu just use the windows key and "R" this will open the run command provided that policies are not restricting this feature.

You need to remove the registry key.
1. Run regedit.exe in you c:\windows
2. Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies

Just look for any key with the keyword Run with the value turn on to 1. Delete the key or set to 0 (Zero).
