"Windows Applications" folder not populating in Ubuntu 9.04

Running crossover 8 beta. Programs install just fine but the "Windows Applications" folder does not show any installed apps. I can launch them via running the .exe directly making desktop links, but I'd like to have the Menu folder have the apps in it. I've checked that the Bottles point the right folder for Menu items but still nothing.

Any ideas?

Is there a way to rebuild or repopulate the list?

First up, this is probably the wrong forum list for beta discussions - see ;

http://www.codeweavers.com/beta/crossover/forum/

Putting beta aside for a moment, someone else reported Ubuntu 9.04 menu creation
issues (with COG 7.2 iirc), and I actually installed a fresh Ubuntu 9.04 system
to check this...but and alas, everything with crossover menus worked as expected
for me...

The only thing I could think of to explain this (possibly), was that I'd installed
the 'desktop' version of 9.04 (as opposed to the other 9.04 release which doesn't
carry the 'desktop' designation), and there may be something a little different
between the two releases..(??)...

Could you tell me which Ubuntu 9.04 you have installed and what window manager
you're using?
