This was exactly the repair I was looking for.

I had installed Diskeeper on a free trial basis, but couldn't afford to buy
it when the trial ran out several weeks back so I uninstalled it. I decided
I needed to defrag yesterday and discovered that my defrag shortcut was gone.
I think Diskeeper is so aggressive that it tries to take the place of the
Windows Defragger, and when I deleted it, it took the shortcut to the Windows
Defragger with it. I've heard a lot of good things about Diskeeper, but I am
not happy with what happened when I uninstalled it.

Anyway, thanks for posting the way to reinstall the original shortcut to the
Windows Defragger.
