Start Menu look?

[Doug Maples]

Since I have quite a few programs installed on my
computer, it is impossible to read them all under
Programs from the Start Menu. There are just too many
columns to be displayed and you cannot scroll to the
right. Under 98, there was one column that you had to
move down quite a ways to find what you are looking for,
but you could do it. Is there a way to change the way XP
displays the Programs?

Right click Start button
Select Explore and/or Explore All Users.
Then open the Programs folder.
Create new subfolders then rearrange shortcuts.

OR

You can also configure your programs list to scroll which results in one
large column.
Right-click the Start button
Go to Properties
Click the Customize button.
Click the Advanced tab.
Scroll through the list until you see the item "Scroll Programs".
Check that and hit OK.

Then after doing that, shorten the shortcut names. Column with is set =
to the longest name.
