    Display Favorites as a link not a menu in Start Menu


    I think the only thing that will work here is a registry hack.

    By default if you set the start menu properties to display "favorites" it does so by a menu. It does not give you a choice to display this as a link or a menu like it does for other folders.

    Is there a way to fix this?

    Drag it on to the start menu ( left hand pane) and pin it and it will open up in a new window when clicked.

    Sorry i know its not what you want but its the only option i know.

    yeah.. I cannot use that method. You see, I need it for a fix mentioned in this thread: Get back XP Style "All Programs" ?

    What this fix does if take you favorites folder in the start menu and turns into a All Programs menu that displays like the program links like XP does.

    Thanks for trying.
