  2. How to organize windows 10 Start Menu in categories instead of alphabet list

    In many case alphabetic list is much less use than a list by category, especially you get many items.

    I used to have categories of Internet, Media, Developing .... Where I can quickly find my items based on categories. but with alphabetic list, items that belong to same group scattered everywhere in different place.

    So how to organize start menu item into categories instead of simply useless alphabet list ?

  3. Add or Remove Items for All Apps in Start menu in Windows 10  


    Hi, @Brink:

    My caffeine titer is low, so I must be missing some blatant, basic step to add a shortcut to my account's All Apps list in the Start menu (Option1).
    The new process both for creating shortcuts and for adding/removing items to the Win10 start menu has me flummoxed.
    Your tutorials are always "topnotch", so this must be a cockpit error on my part.

    >I would like to follow the suggestion on page 1 of the wushowhide.diagcab tutorial to add a shortcut in All Apps for my account.

    I have d/l the wushowhide.diagcab and saved it to my downloads folder.
    I have done Step 1 on Page 1 of THIS tutorial to navigate to the Start Menu Programs folder.
    But HOW do I actually complete Step 3 to create a shortcut and then add it to the Start Menu "All Apps"??

    I think I need to first somehow create a shortcut for the .cab file and then add it to All Apps in the start menu???

    Please advise.

    Thanks!
    MM

    P.S. I have been postponing the probably inevitable installation of Class Shell.
    I would rather not have to install a 3rd-party program to be able to perform basic Windows tasks.
    But this new workflow in Win10 for a basic functionality might force me to do it.
    Sigh.

    Remove alphabet from App Listing on Windows 10 Start Menu?

    Very disappointed that I cannot remove this alphabetical listing entirely from the Start menu. It's clumsy and unappealing. I can already type what I'm looking for. That was convenient. This listing is ugly and irks me every time I hit the start button.
