| | Sort Start Menu I wanted to rearrange my start menu so I right clicked the Windows button -> "Start Menu" tab -> Customize -> unchecked "Sort All Programs menu by name" Then I went to the start menu and drag and dropped the icons to my liking. Now they have been re-alphabetized! Was there something else I missed? I have made sure that check box is still unchecked, which it is. Edit: I think restarting the machine might cause it. But why? |

| | I don't know about your method, but you might get something more to your liking if you created a nested folder structure to contain your start menu items. That way you create categories and subcategories so that you can navigate to any program quickly and easily. |

| | I'm in the same boat. I custom sorted my stuff and if you wait long enough (couple hours) it will resort itself by name again. Not what I want. |

| | keep in mind while the nested folders is great, personally thats what i do to, it's best to do it before you start installing your software. not a big deal either way but sometimes an uninstalled program will still show up in your start menu until removed manually. |
