Fix lost Accounts panel in System Preferences
Authored by: geek-e on Mar 03, '03 11:14:36AM

I haven't seen a missing prefpane but I have seen duplicated prefpanes before. This might be related so I'll post the fix for dupes.
There is a cache file for the system preferencepanes that can be tossed for this problem.
Each user has its own (I'm guessing that's why logging in as someone else in the original post worked) in ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.preferencepanes.cache
Toss that and relaunch the system prefs and all should be good.
