    can't rearrange certain icon in start menu


    Several of my icons in the start menu I can't move. I can resize them, but it won't allow me to move them. This applies for

    - documents folder

    - videos folder

    - pictures folder

    - downloads folder


    I can still rearrange all my other icons, such as

    - Dropbox folder

    - Excel

    - Word

    - Netflix app

    - music folder


    For the items I can't move, I can "pick up" the icon and drag it, but the start menu doesn't fade and I can't drop the icon to a new location.

    :)

    Start menu default internet acces icon screwed?

    You generally set that via the Start Menu settings (right-click start menu -> properties).

    I had that issues a while ago, and it meant removing it from the Start Menu, and reinstalling my browser to get the icon back, it was very odd.
