    Customize Start Menu App List


    Greetings,

    I've already tried asking this in Microsoft Answers.

    I have created an "Adobe" folder (below) in the Start Menu app list, to put Adobe apps in:

    %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Adobe

    I have moved Acrobat Reader and Photoshop Elements into the app list's Adobe folder, but I when I right-click "Notification Manager for Acrobat Reader", there is no "Open file location" option. I've tried manually moving it, but the app isn't in any of these folders:

    %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
    %AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
    C:\Users\All Users\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
    C:\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs

    How can I move the app list shortcut?

    Thanks,
    Shane.

    :)

    Kill the letters! (Start menu apps list.)


    One final hack/adjustment and I will be at peace.
    So far no-one has come up with a way to remove the stupid letters from the start menu apps list... have they?

    Please do NOT suggest third part apps.
    I value the right click menu features on the Start button and all the third party Start Menu apps screw with this.
    I don't want another program, I just want the stupid clumsy letters gone!

    Any creative geniuses out there?
    I'm not the only one who wants this, surely! Customize Start Menu App List :)

    And it doesn't even work...
    Is the name of the program used to determine where the app goes or the name of the company that makes the program.. or even whether it's free or not!
    (See image F for Free!)
    Useless and pathetic Microsoft!

    Customize Start Menu App List

    Customize the left side of the Start menu - Pin to Start List?


    hello.

    I wanted to add some programs to the top of the left side of the start menu (free space on the screenshoot). I have read about the "Pin to Start List" if you rightclick while holding shift. But this seems not to be working anymore!?!?! Is there another possibility to customize this list or to re-add the function?
    I don't want to use "recently added apps" or something like that ...
