Well yes, it can - just as you can dig a swimming pool with a spoon - if you enjoy pain. But I avoid win explorer like the plague as it is so frustratingly inefficient! That is why I didn't mention it.

I actually very rarely use the start menu directly at all. I put a few custom toolbars plus the quick launch toolbar in a 1.5" wide strip on the left side of my screen. I can put over a hundred icons in the top two-thirds - leaving room for 20 icons each in the system tray and taskbar. In essence, I store all my links and link folders in the start menu but access them almost exclusively via the toolbars.

With ZTree I can access/sort (by name, date, size, group)/view/rename/delete/etc links from any one or all of the possible link locations in one pane at once (as well as create links - or groups of links - from the application/source files themselves), and move/copy/comprare/archive/etc any subset of them to any other location I desire. And, for anything I do frequently, I can easily create a ZTree macro or batch file to script to do it automatically. 

That just scratches the surface of its capabilities. Win Explorer just isn't even in the same ballpark as Ztree. Q-Dir &amp; Xplorer2 also have far more capabilities than Explorer but ZTree is indispensable for me. Try it, you may like it! ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[msconfig does NOT fix a sloppy start menu people. It is for your startup programs.
A free alternative to this would be to 'open all users' by right clicking the start menu icon, then click the Programs folder to open it, and then make your own folders and move the programs into whatever order makes sense to you.
Installing more software to do this is silly.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[@39 Art Kns,

How ironic that you would recommend several tools to organize your start menu other than Windows Explorer.

Surely "Any file management program can move them around, rename them, (re)organize them in folders, whatever".

Even Windows Explorer? ;)]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Sheesh. Start menu / desktop links are simply files in a few specific directories (folders). Any file management program can move them around, rename them, (re)organize then in folders, whatever. To install a separate app to manage just these specific files seems a waste of resources and just adds to clutter. And there are lots of file management apps available (many free), that are much, much better than Win Explorer. For example:

Xplorer2 (free) http://www.zabkat.com/x2lite.htm
Q-Dir    (free) http://www.softwareok.com/?seite=Freeware/Q-Dir
Ztree    (SW)   http://www.Ztree.com

Although Ztree is not free (30 trial), it is by far, the most powerful and useful file manager and power tool in existence.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Another vote here for using Vista Start Menu instead of this one.  Been using VSM Pro for years and am very happy with it.  It has a free and Pro version.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I prefer Mike Lin's Startup Control Panel myself. It's always been free and you can get it at the link below. It's nice because it shows all areas where startup items can be placed. MSConfig may hide a few things, and you don't have to deal with that annoying warning when you reboot. You can also add startup items to run in anyway you like...not just in the startup folder. It will add or remove them directly to the registry. Nice simple little utility that requires no installation.

<description><![CDATA[It's possible to do (almost) all this via the explorer.exe and drag and drop in start menu is already a function.

Win 7 (vista?):
C:\Users\**username here**\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs

XP: C:\Documents and Settings\**Username here**\Start Menu\Programs

assuming C:\ is your primary drive

You may need <i>show hidden files and folders</i> enabled, not sure.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Hi, I also did  not get the program to register even though I followed the "read me" file exactly.  Yes, I did run as "Administator," but it still shows as a unregistered copy.  I've never had a problem before with any of the programs.  I guess I'll uninstall it and try to run the "Activate" first, even though you said to run the "Setup" first in the "read me" file.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Installed easily but never registered on Vista Ultimate 64 bit.  

Tried different combinations to attempt registration, running in both Admin and regular user:

Ran setup first, closed before running program, ran Activate.  Didn't Register....uninstalled.
Ran Activate first, then ran setup...closed setup without running program....rechecked.  Didn't Register....uninstalled.
Ran in Admin mode for both setup and activate....closed setup without running program....rechecked again.  Didn't register.....uninstalled.
Ran Admin activating first, then ran setup, closed without running program....rechecked again.  Didn't register.....uninstalling for the last time.

Usually it's rather easy to install software.  If one trick doesn't work you try the next.  However after several attempts and still no registration, it's a complete waste of time to continue.

<b>If one needs to find a combination to install and activate such a simple non important program it's far from worth it....free or pay.  I WOULD NOT pay anything......zero, zip, nada for this.  I would also not recommend it to anyone I know.</b>

To the developer of this app....

You need to go back to the development stage and redo/rethink this app.  With all the different freeware apps available that has much better features as well as <b>installs and runs correctly</b>....this is a bottom of the basket piece of software..  

You are pushing off bad work and a bad app.  This not only makes you look bad but the company as a whole.  Also......If you can't get it to work properly on old Windows systems.....let alone newer ones.....it's time you rethink what you're doing.]]></description>
