Did you tried to check if control panel is set to be displayed in your start menu? check it by doing a right click on your start button and the click properties, the taskbar and start menu properties should open, under the start menu tab you can either select start menu or classis start menu, select start menu then click customize, this should give you another window, that window is the customize start menu window, on this window go to advanced and under advanced look for control panel and select the option "Dispaly as a link" or "Display as a Menu". If this doesn't resolve the issue then the problem is on the windows registry.

Thanks griever! This was the problem, for me. Just happened on your fix during my post-viral cleanup. It would have taken me hours to find that little menu.

Go to the run command and type control panel and press enter key

You can also open the control panel by using command prompt
Type control panel in the C:\ and press enter

when control panel window is open then place your cursor at Add Hardware.You can just select Add Hardware option.
click on file menu and use create shortcut command to create the shortcut button to open the control panel window and place this button at start -UP
