    Start Menu Question


    Hello,

    Is it possible to adjust what items are listed (separately) vertically on the right hand side of the Start Menu ? How ?

    e.g., having "Downloads" shown as a line-item, and not in the Folder for the User, as well as others ?

    Thanks,
    Bob

    Hi Bob. Try right-click on the taskbar -> properties -> start menu tab -> customize and see if the available options are sufficient for what you want to achieve.

Hi All. Hopefully a silly question this. I have been running 7 now for a couple of months, and generally like it a lot. One small thing did strike me as odd though. Coming from XP, the list of programs in the left pane of the start menu, used to continually update with the most recent...

I have a number of items in my start menu and am about to run out of space for them, that is, I'm running out of vertical range. I'm just wondering what happens if your start menu fills up? Do some items get truncated, is another column created? How should I look at this?

Is there a way that I can get the start menu to stay the same size (the regular...
