Bug? On reinstall of a component I get

This is on Joomla 3.7.5 Installed once fine ... uninstalled and reinstalled and I get a menu error.

No administrator menu is shown but component says it installs.

Message
Plugin speechies was installed successfully
Module mod_speechies was installed successfully
Installation of the component was successful.

Error
JTableMenu::_getNode(1, ) failed.

Warning
Error building Administrator Menus.

It looks like the first 3 records of the #__menu table have been removed on the uninstall process.

I noticed there was an error with my views on first creation, it seems when cloning database tables changing the name of the table doesnt change the name for the view. This caused errors with my views and a double up .... which in turn has probably messed up the uninstall process.

running ...

INSERT INTO `DATABASE`.`PREFIX_menu` (`id` ,`menutype` ,`title` ,`alias` ,`note` ,`path` ,`link` ,`type` ,`published` ,`parent_id` ,`level` ,`component_id` ,`checked_out` ,`checked_out_time` ,`browserNav` ,`access` ,`img` ,`template_style_id` ,`params` ,`lft` ,`rgt` ,`home` ,`language` ,`client_id` ) VALUES ( '1', '', 'Menu_Item_Root', 'root', '', '', '', '', '1', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0000-00-00 00:00:00', '0', '0', '', '0', '', '0', '0', '0', '*', '0')

Rebuilds the first row and makes you able to install the component again. I will have to manually fix up the other missing com_banner records.

Confirming this bug fix.

Fixing the component view name of the table you cloned (so its not the same as the clone). and running the sql to fix the missing records

INSERT INTO `DATABASE`.`PREFIX_menu` (`id`, `menutype`, `title`, `alias`, `note`, `path`, `link`, `type`, `published`, `parent_id`, `level`, `component_id`, `checked_out`, `checked_out_time`, `browserNav`, `access`, `img`, `template_style_id`, `params`, `lft`, `rgt`, `home`, `language`, `client_id`) VALUES
(1, '', 'Menu_Item_Root', 'root', '', '', '', '', 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, '0000-00-00 00:00:00', 0, 0, '', 0, '', 0, 123, 0, '*', 0),
(2, 'main', 'com_banners', 'Banners', '', 'Banners', 'index.php?option=com_banners', 'component', 1, 1, 1, 4, 0, '0000-00-00 00:00:00', 0, 0, 'class:banners', 0, '', 1, 10, 0, '*', 1),
(3, 'main', 'com_banners', 'Banners', '', 'Banners/Banners', 'index.php?option=com_banners', 'component', 1, 2, 2, 4, 0, '0000-00-00 00:00:00', 0, 0, 'class:banners', 0, '', 2, 3, 0, '*', 1);

then reinstalling the fixed built component. Will have no errors.
