You can do a copy things.
1- Modify the existing Start Menu shortcut by Right Click - Properties - Replace the target
2- Copy the existing Start Menu shortcut (copy\paste) and then modify.
3- If you want have Media Center startup at loggon just create a new REG_EXPAND_SZ registry entry under
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
Name: Doesn't matter, I use MediaCenter

yeah if you know the app id and the entry points, you can create a short cut to make MCE open directly to what you want. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Gigabyte OS Windows 7 Ultimate CPU Intel Core(TM)2 Quad- Q9550, 2.83GHz Motherboard G31M-ES2L Memory 4GB Graphics Card ATI Radeon HD4600 Sound Card On Board: Monitor(s) Displays Acer AL2223W, Acer AL1916 Screen Resolution 1680 x 1050, 1280 x 1024 Keyboard Microsoft Laser 6000 Mouse Logitech Optical Trackman PSU 600W Case Cooler Master Hard Drives 160GB

You can also make a shortcut for entrypoints/appid's that you want to open.
So, example, you want to open MediaBrowser right away, open that shortcut, and viola. Windows Media Center - Command Line Switches (eg open directly to TV) - Tech Support Guy Forums
For Windows 7 you HAVE TO include the entrypoint and app guidID. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell 6400/My own build OS Windows 7 RTM x86/x64 CPU Yonah/e6600 O.C. to 3.4GHz Motherboard Dell/EVGA Memory 2GB/4GB Graphics Card ATI/EVGA NVIDIA 8800 Sound Card RealTek/Auzentech X-Meridian Monitor(s) Displays Built-in/65" Mitsubishi HDTV Screen Resolution 1280x1800/1920x1280 Keyboard Standard/Media Center Kbd Mouse Touchpad/Bluetooth PSU Dell Laptop/CoolerMaster Case Laptop/CoolerMaster Cosmos Cooling Air/Water Hard Drives 80GB Toshiba/Several Internet Speed 20MBPS |
