how to add a shortcut back to the menu

Hi there I installed a program, which listed itself 5 different times, so i was trying to find the correct one, and deleted the rest off the list by renaming them to "-" but i deleted the wrong one by mistake, so I was wondering how to add it back to the menu???

Anyone know how to do this? I would greatly appreciate the help.

Thanks

Check here:

https://portableapps.com/support/portable_apps_suite#hidingicons

To get the icon back, you'll need to edit the PortableAppsMenu.ini file within your X:\PortableApps\PortableApps.com\Data directory and remove the entry appname\appnameportable.exe=true within the [AppsHidden] section.

And Welcome to PortableApps.com Smile

Finding the right one

If an app installs several icons with the same name, you might figure out which is which by just hovering over the icon - the latest version of the menu will show the path.
