    Folders on Start Menu


    Hi,
    Last question on customizing Windows 10 *Smile
    Settings > Personalization > Start > Choose which folder appear on Start
    I need to enable ONLY the following ones:

    File Explorer
    Settings
    Documents
    Downloads
    Personal Folder

    As usual via registry!
    In Windows 7 the key was:

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]

    For example: "Start_ShowDownloads"=dword:00000001
    But in Windows 10 registry address is changed I think.
    Anyone knows the new address?
    Thanks in advance *Smile

    :)

    Go to each folder in Explorer. Right-click on the folder and select 'Pin to Start'. You can put them on the Task bar too.
